Just the Facts: You have 7 days to photograph (human) sports or action and make the viewer feel the moment.
Sports photography is all about the moment. The moment is all about anticipation. Observe the rhythm, pick your spot, pre-focus where the action will peak. Use fast shutter speeds to freeze impact, or slow it slightly to show motion and energy. Be mindful of your background and track your subject so the face, eyes, or main focus read clearly. Light and composition matter, as always, but timing here is paramount.
