Boeing 747-400 (B-1340) - Handheld 1/15" exposure at 215mm, 10 minutes after sunset. Since the aircraft is long, it is impossible to keep all parts sharp. The middle part and right-wing are sharp but others are not. It is because they move at different angular speeds related to the camera, and the slow shutter magnified the difference.

Pretty cool shot! Very nice. I'm still trying to master low-light shots.
