 Panning shots are difficult.

In Camera Raw, I pitted Blacks against Fill Light. Also, vibrance, saturation, exposure, and 3 sensor dust spots removed.

Airplanes are not appreciated by everyone, even vintage ones like this Boeing Stearman. Therefore, I predict 4.5. I think it's worth 6 or more and I find this frustrating.

Nice panning shot. Runway line and windsock pole are a little askew.
