Wow how did you achieve this effect? (To the original one).

I agree I got a "mountain biking" feel when I first saw it, probably because I used to do some biking. I dont like calling it "mountain biking" because I live in Florida. Only mountains here are the waves!

I am really impressed how much feedback this one gets

will try to do it properly next summer ... should get even better feedback then

used an image stabilised lens, long exposure (5 seconds), hold as steady as possible, then, after a second or two I did zoom out.

that is why the trees are bending towards the centre, it is the extra gravity :lmao:

[note: this was a totally unscientific comment of mine. As a physicist I can do better ]

I've seen something like that where a guy put a tripod up to his rear bumper, set the timer to 10 seconds, had the shutter stay open for 8 seconds and he drove away from the camera. It made it look like his car was going super fast (The tail lights were blurred the most but I guess he stopped near then end (with the e-brake so the tail lights would'nt getr brighter) because his car was in perfect focus at th eend of the warped lights). It looked really cool.
