Panning Shot
A photographic technique of following a moving subject with the camera during a slow shutter so the subject stays sharp while the background streaks. It is a long-standing motorsport and street photography staple.

Why it happens
The camera moves at the subject's speed during a slow exposure, freezing it relative to the frame while everything else is dragged across the sensor as streaks.

Convey speed from left to right. Keep the original subject and composition.”
