Today, write a comment to this blog. Discuss how action/motion is depicted in each shot. What in the image portrays the action? How do you think the shot was taken (What settings on the camera)? Do this for EACH photo.
ONCE DONE, GO BACK TO MOODLE FOR ANOTHER ENTRY ON YOUR BLOG ... ALSO DUE TODAY!

I really like the billiard picture because it shows lots of movement, and then no movement in the middle of the frame. Great contrast with the motion.
In this blog there are two pictures and they both have a action in them. The action in the first one is showing a cue stick hitting the ball making the other balls move. In the second one there is a guy hitting a ball wile he is running.
Oh, and the second photo:
The position of the tennis player and how his legs are positioned midstep give the sense of motion.
The billiard picture shows how you can have an action shot but still look like a still shot.
In the billiard picture there is a stationary object and moving objects. This was taken using a slower shutter speed. The tennis player picture was take while he was moving and it was taken using a fast shutter speed.
In the top picture they used a slower shutter speed to take a picture of the billiard balls moving with the streaks of color. While the bottom picture was taken with a faster shutter speed, and the only way you can tell the tennis player is moving is because of how he is standing, midstep.
the billiard picture shows movement and the tennis guy shows that you can take motion pictures while still in motion with out to much smugdes
Picture 1:
The action in this shot is depicted by blurred images showing movement. The blur is helps me guess that the shutter is set to a slower speed because the billiard balls aren't "frozen" in their places they have left a trail!
Picture 2: The action in this shot isn't really shown except for an observer's interpretation that the subject probably couldn't be holding that pose. The camera must have had a faster shutter speed or on the action setting on the camera since no images are blurred
In the first shot, you can really tell that the balls are moving. It seems that somehow (i'm not really sure how) the balls on the outside appear to have a slow shutter speed, while those in the center seem to have a fast shutter speed. Maybe this was taken slow shutter speed, and the center was focused on? I'm not really sure.
In the second shot, it appears that it was taken with a very fast shutter speed, because the tennis ball and raquet appear not to be moving, although we know that they are. This was probably taken with a very fast shutter speed.
and the second photo gives you a sense of motion by his leg position.
Also, we know that the person was moving because of his stance, and that in tennis you are moving very quickly.
i like the pool shot because it shows lots of movement.and i like the tennis picture because of the clearness of the picture and seeing how the person was moving that must have been a hard to get .
Picture 1(billiards)

Picture 2(tennis)

The billiards photo is still in the center and in focus while the objects around it are in motion and out of focus. A middle aperture was probably used and a low-medium time for shutter was used because there is little light and there is blurriness.
Its crazy how the tennis shot is captured
i also really like the billiard shot because of the contrast between non-movement and movement
The picture of Roger Federer is probably using a relatively fast shutter setting for the fast movement in tennis and because it is in focus it probably had a high aperture setting too.
I think that the first photo is taken with a slower shutter speed so that when the cue stick hits the ball. Then you get the effect with all the other balls hitting each other. And the picture with the tennis player is faster because the ball hasn't even hit the tennis racket and he is in mid-step and it is very clear.
