Le modèle a bougé? L'objectif était-il trop étroit ? Le déclenchement en retard ? Le trépied a glissé ? Une petite explication avec la photo est de rigueur :)

Did the model move ? Was the lens too narrow ? Did you shoot too late ? Did the tripod move ? A short explanation with your picture is in order :)
As a counterpoint to @Sebastian 's snowy pano from Peru, here is an outback rocky pano from Mutawintji National Park, Outback NSW, Australia. https://photog.social/media/onV-bnD3vUamQnXlJJY
Alright, first pic. Preliminary panorama of Huascarán peaks (actually a photo fail). Highest peaks in the tropics (above 6000m). Not happy with the color rendition. 150mm f/3 low quality glass. #peru #photography
Note to self - always check the settings on your camera, especially if you were doing something out of the ordinary the last time you used it.
2 days earlier, I had been doing some indoor night-time photography, hence the high ISO and low shutter speed, resulting in this, the first frame, being massively over-exposed and out of focus.

Old Man Emu - out in the desert on the way to Mutawintji National Park.
We saw many such emus along that road, and about 8 or 9 road kill versions too :(
Unfortunately, although they're Australia's largest birds, they don't have a proportionally large brain.

Polite Reminder - loli
Just a quick reminder: loli is specifically banned in our CoC.
We would like to ask our users report any instance of loli or general affirmative discussions of loli.
In the West (especially ultra conservative jurisdictions) simply showing implicit support of loli can cause a HUGE amount of LEGAL TROUBLE for an individual. It can also quickly result in a user being placed on a Sex Offenders Registry or Child Molestation Registry.
Please be mindful.

Well, I like the FF aliteration, a simple catchy trick that proved success on social net.
Everyone will add the #photo anyway so that should be OK
Lets see how the others think about that?
We visited the Living Desert Sculpture Garden this afternoon. It's about 5km or so north of Broken Hill. I was hoping to be able to stay until after dark for some milky way shots, but the gates close at 18:30 which meant that wasn't going to happen.
Also, it was very exposed and blowing 35-40kph winds.
The sculptures themselves were built by Intl artists in 1993 for a Sculpture Symposium and are situated on a small hill with 360º views.
Very excited to have captured a photo of one of these guys.
It's a Splendid fairy-wren. While we get Superb fairy-wren's at home, these guys don't come that far north or east, and are so much prettier.
