Introduction
The extraordinary allure of sports photography lies in the fact that it conveys a sudden flash of
inspiration. It shows a unique, arresting type of beauty. That is to say, the photographs you take are
likely to show something completely different from what the other people who were present saw. When
photographing sports, photographers need to observe not only the speed, trajectory and technique of
the athletes, but also changes in the details and parts of the sporting process. In those fleeting instants,
photographers are constantly challenging themselves in terms of both photographic techniques and
aesthetic paradigms. The "athlete" on the sidelines is the same as those competing, with the same goal
of "higher, faster, stronger". The very essence of sports photography is the enjoyment of being personally
involved and experiencing the process of going after that goal again and again!
