Assignment 26 - In the Blink of an Eye - Action Photography

National Photography Month is over and its back to our normal assignment schedule! To kick things off we are going to take a look at action photography. Photography is a static medium, it doesn't move. The world we live in, however, moves constantly.Because of this, conveying a sense of motion can sometimes present quite a challenge for photographers. Action photography is about taking an recorded image of a moving subject and using that recorded image to show a viewer the motion that took place.
