This is beautiful! And the horizontal movement is so smooth -- not always easy to do.

I'm wondering if it needs a little less sky. There's not a lot happening up there.

[Dave Woeller]

So nice and silky smooth. I love the layer look and that each layer seems to have its own personality.

[Dennis Bishop]

I like the blur and the colors. It was a good touch not to have all the layers be continuous. I agree with Diane about cropping off a little bit of the sky but for a different reason. All the layers are fairly smooth, so the fact that there's not a lot happening in the sky doesn't bother me at all. However, cropping a bit off would put some of the layer boundaries in divine proportion relative to the height of the image.

David, Nice job with the panning blur it has a wonderful seamless flow to it. Great colors, I would take a sliver off the top so that the sky blue matched the same size as the yellowish/green strip at the bottom- if it were mine. Love it!

[Nancy Bell]

Wow...I love the beautiful flowing streaks of repeating colors. It has just enough detail so I can tell it is water and grasses and is not a total abstract. I agree with a bit off the top.

Like the blur, really gives the impression of speed...like looking out a train window or moving car...nice work

David, this is a beautiful pan blur. I love it for all the reasons stated above. It has such a nice flow to it and I love the different layers of color. Another vote for a little off of the top.
