Photography - Panning

i learned something new while waiting for time to pass during NDP shoot. thank you dear.

Panning refers to the rotation in a horizontal plane of a still camera or video camera. In still photography, the panning technique is used to suggest fast motion, and bring out the subject from other elements in the frame. In photographic pictures it is usually noted by a foreground subject in action appearing still (i.e. a runner frozen in mid-stride) while the background is streaked and/or skewed in the apparently opposite direction of the subject's travel, similar to speed lines, and is often used in sports photography, primarily of racing.
