Motion photography captures the essence of movement in a still image, allowing viewers to feel the action within a frame. This technique often involves using slower shutter speeds to create a blur effect, emphasizing the speed and dynamism of the subject. Common subjects include athletes, dancers, and vehicles, where the motion adds excitement and energy to the photograph. Photographers may also use techniques like panning, where the camera follows a moving subject, keeping it in focus while blurring the background. This method enhances the sense of motion and can be seen in various genres, including sports photography and wildlife photography.
