Re: creating the look of SPEED

My Photo instructor takes pictures at a local horse track during the
races for the different owners. She mentioned in class that her
pictures during the race are always taken so the horse moves from
"left to right" as it creates the look of speed within the picture!
My guess is this would also apply with cars too. Something to do with
the way we look at a page(read). Pictures showing cars travelling
right to Left don't have the same effect! Hope this helps

That's Euro-centric though. It is the opposite for, say, native readers of
Arabic. Not sure if it matters if you are Chinese.
