After watching the Embassy darts competition (biggest event of the year) I decided to do something appropriate... Comments welcome.

awesome job richard. the motion blur and the shallow depth of field REALLY work well to create a sporty feel in this shot. great job.

Yes, well done. If it were me, it would take a couple dozen shots just to get the thrown dart to land on the right number. Looks like you landed a 20 for sure, maybe even a double-20.

Nice shot Richard, right on the money.
How many photo's did you have to take for this result ?
I would like to see this in the coloured version as well.

Thanks for the kind comments!

It did take a good number of shots to get it right, but digital film is cheap....

Edwin, I did try the colored version, but given the colors of the dartbord I found it very distracting.

Cathy, thanks!

Talltree (by lack of real name), I did this in black and white because I found that the brightcolored checkered boardpattern was very distracting, stealing the focus from the moving dart. Other reason is that I used to do more b&w than color, more comfortable with it.....
By the way, just saw your biker pic, unexpected subject for this competition, but really working well.

A very good shot where the short DOF actually tells something.
