Is it art, or simply lack of focus?

Neither answer is wrong.

(10,599 posts)I do take "Intentional camera movement" photos from time to time:

However, in this case, the Z8 has a setting for "subject tracking with lock-on", which works rather well when a tree comes between me and the subject while panning. In this case my chimney came between me and the subject for a long period of time and the camera lost focus. When I pulled it in Photoshop, I immediately fell in love with it. This happens occasionally when the sun is just right and this happens:

(10,599 posts)sort of the Goldilocks zone, 2.5 miles from the flight path which isn't loud at all. weather can cause them to loop around me like the OP photo, but not so close as it would seem, I'm using a 1200mm lens. My wife and I were joking how these plane photos have taken a large part of my photography simply because the subjects come to me, not like chasing a dragonfly all over the yard, lol. Now if you are in a location where they fly over at 40,000ft you can still snag some interesting shots, like this Delta with the Auxiliary Power unit on for some reason, or this Spirit through high thin clouds on the way to Miami. I have found the subject matter is limitless!
