I shot this one at 11PM, while the airplane was taxiing at normal speed on taxiway Alpha (headed for 4L departure), at 8000 ISO (ASA) and it came out like this. 10 Years ago I would have told you this is simply not possible. Below are the specs:

70-200mm @ 125mm 1/20 sec, f/2.8 Mode: Tv Metering: Evaluative Exp comp: -1/3 ISO: 8000 AF mode: One-shot AF Drive: Continuous (high): frame 1 White balance: Auto
