My apologies if this ends up in the wrong place.... motocross, mama and baby dolphins out for a swim were both shot with my D7100 using the 70-300mm, while the heron was shot with the D7100 using the 150-500mm.


Really like #1 gd

I am going to go try to stop the same action in a bit. I just have to find the right background. There aren't many spruce branches without a lot of snow.

You see, we had so much snow come down overnight, that my road isn't plowed at all. & I do mean public highway, rural road, not my driveway.

Good Morning! Welcome to 'Freezing the Action,' one of my favorite topics! When researching the topic, it didn't take long to discover that there are many differing opinions among professional photographers as to what the term, 'freezing he action' really means. For most photographers, it means capturing the motion of a subject with sharpness and no blur. For others, it means capturing the motion of the subject with sharpness and no blur, but also capturing the velocity of the movement in the background. Here are the links for two good articles demonstrating each technique:

Stopping the action with a fast shutter speed - your photo is captured, with subject sharp, and no blur in the picture.

Freezing the action in which your subject is sharp while still showing the velocity of movement. This can be obtained by physically following/moving the subject with your camera after you have locked the subject into focus.

Many of you are already masters at freezing the action. I can't wait to see your examples!
