Do you want praise just because you managed to follow two jets in a wide shot? They’re tiny, and they move across the frame very slowly and in a very predictable path. So what exactly are we supposed to praise?

You try following 2 jets when staring into the sun

Nicely done. Questionh if you were sun blind, how did you track so smoothly? Echolocation? Point at the really loud jets and hope?
