Thanks, Boily.

I'm sure you would be good at this. But it can be difficult following them with a long lens. You have to keep the panning motion going during and after pressing the shutter.

The first shot of that flight didn't come out. I saw later that it was too dark. But I kept the panning motion even after the viewfinder blanked out so I would have them in frame for a second shot.

Excellent capture as always, domang. Thanks for posting and thank you for sharing the panning technique with us.

Thanks, Sarah.

Don't know if that's the proper technique but I think it would have to be. Kinda like hitting a baseball. You 'follow through' the swing after hitting the ball to be certain you don't stop short.
