Sports photography and historical development

Abstract

Sports photography undoubtedly has a significant place in sports press and publicism. It's main and primary role is to present sports to the readers as art, which it is. Sport is characterized by dynamic and varied movements, and the main role of sports photography is reflected in the fact that it is in this way that sport shows its essence. Having in mind that photography tells more than a thousand words it sends a clear message to the reader as well to people who are informed about events via sports portals. Sports photography is a multidimensional art for many reasons. When we say "multi", it primarily refers to a wider range that sports photography has to offer, which means sports photography is not only directed at presenting athletes on the move and the main actors who contribute to achieving the results by their engagement -it also has the role of sports "psychophotography" which is an analysis and capture of the emotional reaction of an athlete after winning or losing from the opposing team.
