Tips on Taking Great Photos of Kids Playing Sports

Freeze Frame: Taking great sports photos easy as having the right equipment

by Misty Hoyt

With an early Saturday morning Starbucks coffee in one hand and a brand new Rebel Canon camera in the other, today’s the day Dad’s going to get that perfect shot of Braylen scoring the winning goal.

After every click of the shutter, Dad checks the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). Although certain he captured Braylen’s magnificent header, to Dad’s disappointment only the before and after shots appear, neither of which included the ball. That’s ok, however, as he continually checks the LCD, there are plenty of fairly good action shots. That is, until Dad gets home, pops the memory card into the computer only to discover that blown up to larger than a 3-inch-by-2-inch image, the ball, Braylen and even the grass are out of focus. Even the newest technology can’t fix motion blur. Darn! Back to the drawing board.
