STEP 3 : RESPONDING TO THE ACTION
One of the major differences between photo- graphy and the older image - making arts like drawing and painting , is that a scene can be captured instantaneously . The cam- era shutter works so fast that you can record almost any event , no matter how brief . Ideally the exact moment you choose will not only capture the action successfully but will also make a well composed picture .
When using the camera very quickly to take a candid shot or capture a momentary picture , it is obviously advisable to try to set the focus and exposure , and consider view- point and composition , in advance . This is easiest with repeating events such as a motor race or track meeting , where you can choose a particular section of track to focus on and wait for the action to come into your viewfinder frame . But even when you are taking pictures of momentary events , you can often anticipate the action before it occurs , although you do need fast co- ordination for good results .
When several different aspects of the subject are changing at the same time , it may be necessary to take several pictures in succession in order to capture the precise moment you want . At other times you will need great patience to wait for the right expression or the best positioning of ele- ments within the picture frame .
Momentary expression
For candid momentary pictures such as the one shown above , you need patience and quick reflexes . In this case , the camera was pre- set out of sight of the subject so that the picture could be taken quickly . Notice how the subject has been isolated from the back- ground by a shallow depth of field .
Changing relationships
Reacting quickly to passing en- counters can produce very re- warding results . The lines in the composition , left , divide up the picture well , but its success results from the exact conjunction of the two women and the chicken . which would have been absent a moment earlier or later .
Action and viewpoint
One of the difficulties in photo- graphing personalities at crowded events is separating them from the confused surroundings . One sol- ution is to move in close , but this often loses too much of the environ- ment the picture could have been taken anywhere . In the picture . right , the photographer thought ahead and carefully chose his viewpoint . The high camera pos- ition turned the confusion of faces into an interesting pattern of hats . The photographer successfully gambled that his subject - Prin cess Anne ( center ) would look up within camera range .
Action and context
The split - second timing of the exposure and the direct , frontal viewpoint captures the aggression of the rioter , above . Photo- journalists frequently have to capture a very brief event and , for them , information takes precedence over composition . This picture conveys information with a good . composition . In the background the disordered crowd suggests a context and mood , but is not clear enough to detract from the central interest of the figure .
Action and mood
In the picture , right , the photo- grapher chose a position near the finishing line of a race in advance and successfully captured the elation of the winner . By using a low camera viewpoint and a shal- low depth of field , distracting background elements were re- duced to insignificance .
