(b) It is not easy to capture action in pictures because people
have a tendency to "ham" or look at the camera.
By understanding the
importance of action in your pictures and the abundance of action available
everywhere, you will soon become adept at recognizing and capturing it on
film.
Figures 1-1 and 1-2 illustrates action pictures.
In figure 1-1, the

background. In figure 1-2, the photographer kept his camera trained to the
action. A fast shutter speed "froze" the action in place.
