One thing I have been trying to work on in the last year is how to introduce motion into photography. It used to be a fine art, but seems to have largely disappeared with "sharpness" being the focus of photography. I have no issue with sharpness, it does show off a certain level of skill. But it is also rather narrow in the representation of stuff. We do get things like panning in motorsport, long exposures producing silky water effects. But in general photography, probably not the best way to describe it, but there seems to be a hyper focus on sharpness. Sharness doesn't tell a story, convey movement...in what ever form. You can even still have extremely sharp images that convert motion - I'm thinking specifically of some of the really good rodeo shots I've seen.
So to you all so I can expand my understanding of motion, would love to see some of your better examples of photos that convey motion in what ever way possible. I need inspiration, and would to see what you have done.
