Hello Everyone,

Wanted to post a thread dedicated to action shots. This type of photography is exciting because you are capturing action while it is happening. When I was shooting for the Coast Guard these were the most desirable images I could capture since the media loved to use them to sell news. The key to capturing action is having your shutter speed set at 800 or higher. My favorite lens to use for shooting action is a 200mm. This is the longest telephoto lens you can use handheld. Anything longer and you will need a tripod. Though you can capture action with any size lens. 

Here are some action shots I took while in the Coast Guard and around Minnesota. Please share any action you've captured. We would all love to see them.

Great Shoots. Taking a shot on these moments really interesting.
