Definition: An image that has captured the tracking of movement. The subject should be against a blurred background, conveying a sense of movement to emphasise speed e.g. a vehicle, animal or bird.
The blurred effect created from panning must have been created in-camera and in one image only. No editing programs used to create blurred movement or compositions will be accepted. The original raw file may be required for clarification.
Uploads close 7 September 2026 (11.45pm).
