THE SPORTS photography is the need of today and thousands are specialists in their respective fields and earning a good sum....U must have witnessed in cricket ground the photographers with big-big lenses worth lakhs of rupees....However before u start taking shots of sports , a basic understanding of the sports is important...and particularly, what u can anticipate is when the exciting moments may happen. For example, in football match, the best photographs can be captured near the net when the strickers shoot a fast ball at the goal and the goalkeeper jumps to save in mid-air...Even for fast moving sports such as cycling, bike and martial arts....better to know ur position which angle will suit u for the best shot....As happened in the side photo of bike race, I chose this turn point, where the most excitement was seen in the bikers and the audience....And in fast races, it is also the danger point...so the best shot cannot be missed.
