40 Awesome Examples of Action Photography
Photography in motion is magical in that it takes something ordinary and allows it to come alive. Action photography draws the viewer in, as if they were right there in the moment. When looking at an action shot, you should be able to feel the movement, sense the anticipation, or realize what a rare sight you are witnessing. Action is found in the everyday and in the spectacular; it might be found in the twirling skirt of a dancer, the flapping ears of a puppy, or the curve of a crashing wave.
While viewing the following images, allow yourself to get lost in the moment. Action photography allows us to be a part of something we otherwise may never have had the chance to embrace. These shots will have you trapped in time, reveling in all they have to offer.

These sample photos sure edify the concept that timing is everything. I recommend that fellow photographers check out some of the “decisive moment” photos of Henri Cartier-Bresson.
Were all of them timed right or some of them planned or constructed?
