My Childhood City Beckons:
Childhood, however distorted and faded
continues to play an important role in adulthood:
The Hague, city of my childhood and early adult years often beckons
My heart always beats faster when I am visiting
the old haunts from my distant youth
Great shot. Panning is good for the mind. More of those please.

I think that is true for everyone. Home, sweet home. A beautiful picture which shows some of the energy in Den Haag.

Interesting motion blur — was it added during post-processing?

Hi , no..slow shutter speed and handheld movement of camera and lots of luck, this is one out of many failures!

Ahhh I see — I never panned an exposure before, but I could imagine it would be tedious to pull off.

So well taken : a marvellous composition, well framed with the trees at the top right, and the buildings on the left, the cyclist getting into the picture, the other one following the lines leading to a vanishing point, the movement… beautiful colours… a definite WOW!

Really super image, Paula – love the processing of course, but the image’s structure, the arrangement of the various items within it – especially the cyclist and that great red tram – are ideal. Once again, I am jealous! Adrian 🙂
