 This was shot at an air show in PA.I cropped for the best fit, and used slight sharpening, and contrast adjustments. I chose this shot instead of some aircraft shots because of the uniqueness. This guy is over seventy years old and knows how to have fun. The diagonal panning is different from the normal left to right panning shots.

I kept the parachute out of the shot because the sky was all washed out and I wanted to focus on the jumper.

the man is too blurry and the composition is weak. Had the shot been cropped asymetrically it would have made a difference in drawing more movement into the photo.

Appears out of focus. Composition might be better if subject not centered.

Interesting capture. The actual panning to gain focus on the man didn't work for you and the composition is bland.
