Nice effect but how?

    For the barbariangroup blur, I brought the panorama into photoshop, made 4 (I think it was 4) motion blurred versions with varying degrees of blur (and I tweaked the levels a bit so the image gets 'hotter' the faster the blur). The four blurs and original pan are put into a movie clip spread across 5 frames. If the pan is moving at, for example, 20 pixels or less per frame, it stays on frame 1, the one showing the unblurred image. If it is moving 20 to 40 pixels, it shows frame 2. 40 to 80, it shows frame 3, etc.

    Actually fate, I was ripping Natzke. ;) He was the first person I saw do the blur effect. Click on 'Pattern Reflections' at www.natzke.com.
