this is the type of entry that blows my mind. sorry if you find this offensive, but really. you have a decent camera. i have to assume you went out to shoot for the challenge. this was the best you could do? you were on the right track...why'd you quit? why didn't you look for a car with color that wouldn't blend into the background? why didn't you try to find a background that would offer interesting colors when blurred together? this one looks like it was a shot that 'got away', but you decided to go with it anyways. motion panning shots are fun and can be interesting, but they do take practice; the thing is, practice doesn't cost anything but time. oh well.

Good challenge response. Perhaps a crop out of most of the foreground road would have really pinged out the car, bus and people, try it and see.

The cityscape background is a bit to distracting for this style of photo i feel

I know this technique is very hard, so well done. Best subject sharpness and motion blur is usually at point when object is right in front of you, or just approaching, to see the front side of the subject.

A little blown in the highlights, and the subject could have been sharper. Nice try, though, and the background provides a lot of interest.

this works. In that it accomplishes the objective of isolating the white car.

Not such an interesting photo - would have looked better if it had been front of car and perhaps a bit closer in. Car could have been a bit sharper.
