Hitting that pan at 1/8 of a second is really impressive!

I really appreciate the time taken for this video. It's nice to hear critiques from seasoned vets, especially those still in the business. I don't see many videos on sports photography, especially these types. But it's helpful to hear their thoughts for my own shooting.

[@chadforeman225]

Thank you for making these videos. Really enjoy them.

[@briantucker8965]

Great stuff. I love the detailed critique. I have “improved” some of my photos already and am rethinking my process thank you, thank you!

[@turnerx5]

Great stuff here, as usual. Thank you PRM!

[@frat7939]

A great video, man!

[@piotra.2362]

Thx a lot!

[@PhotowalksTV]

Great video Peter!

[@1stDownPhoto]

Great edition, thank you very much. Hope you will do more in the future. Steve, did you mean "Omnium" when you talked about the wide angle cycling shot?

[@robertstv8045]

I shoot warmups. I can stand close to the net. Gr8 composition and youth parents are happy to see photos. Not being form and actual match does not affect sales.

[@poppyspix4444]

Hey guys, do you think there is a difference between editing for the web vs editing for SI (particularly in cropping)?

[@Urumi89]

Can we have one only with gymnastics? Btw Shawn Johson retired a few years ago!

[@LiveeyePhoto]

I use Flipboard every day so I need to up my game before I post in there

[@LuisGarcia-036]

PRM is clearly the better photographer here. The way he has to keep correcting the other guy… that man is only focused on seeing things from a magazine editor POV, not as a photographer overall

[@djkevin314]

Omnium

[@ekevanderzee9538]

The negative bits you mention about the racr car are caused by the cropping you love so much. Also, know your sport. This is F1 and they don't race on banked tracks....

[@jeffk3556]

Your first picture is pickleball.....not tennis.
