The world around us is in motion. Some things move slowly, like growing plants
or turtles. Other things move much more quickly. From birds
to cars to children to ocean waves, things around us move.
As photography is a still medium we have to seek creative
ways of capturing and conveying this motion to our viewers.
This quest of capturing and conveying motion is collectively
called action photography.
Photography is the process of making pictures by means of the action of light. Light patterns reflected or emitted from objects are recorded onto a sensitive medium or storage chip through a timed exposure. The process is done through mechanical, chemical or digital devices known as cameras.
