Further explanation of the theme, provided by winner GPR:

"For this week I thought it's time to get a little more expressive and utilize the often neglected Panning Mode 1. I sometimes like to use this mode to spice things up and find is can create interesting results that showcase a more raw speed and energetic and word of the day 'expressive' feel. So get out to your track of choice and give us all some Panning Mode 1 brilliance. For best results I suggest keeping a low shutter speed, ideally 1/125sec or 1/60sec. So there you have it hope you have fun!

Here's a few examples to get you thinking. (If they help at all.)

Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 Example 4"



CARS: Any
LOCATIONS: Any
PHOTOTRAVEL: No
UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS: Must use Panning Mode 1. Must have movement, no still shots.

Please, ensure you read and understand all requirements for this competition. Failure to follow
the rules may result in disqualification. If you have questions, send me a Private Message.
This Thread will answer many possible questions you may have.

  • It is recommended you host your image on ImageShack, Photobucket, or Flickr.
  • Not sure how to post a thumbnail or preview image? Read this sticky!
  • Please use a clickable-preview to full-size, not a separate text link for it;
    it makes poll creation much easier!

  • One entry per user. It must be your own work, and never previously used in a comp.
  • Do not ask other users to choose your entry.
  • Absolutely no hybrid, hacked cars, or cars obtained through such means.
  • Mark your FINAL ENTRY clearly, with red text. On H2H weeks, which side, as well.
  • You may change your entry once. Do it clearly; edit out your previous entry, and
    either post the new one in a new reply, or in place of the original.
  • When submitting, use either a thumbnail or a preview image, linked to the full-sizer.
  • Preview images can not exceed 500 pixels in either direction.
  • A preview image must be representative of the full-size image. Do not add effects to it.
  • Do not post "Honourable Mentions" or outtakes - just your Final Entry, that's all.
  • Winner gets to choose the following week's theme, as well as the Top 15. Every fourth
    week, the poll will be H2H style: entries must choose a "team", leading to two 8-picture,
    4-day polls. The winners from each faces off in a final 48 hour poll.
  • Winners cannot enter in their own theme!
  • The Host may ask for the original image and it must be submitted if so.
    It's recommended to save the original image (preferably in-game) until week's ends.
Failure to follow these rules will result in ignored entries and/or disqualification!

I recently captured a photo in panning mode 1 after several months. What a coincidence. :sly:
 
Ronin, I haven't seen you since the Planet merger!

You can use the dodge/burn tools to recreate/intensify the effects of headlights, but you can't use lens flares or other automatic filters. Hope that helps 👍
