Some images look so expressive that it seems that time itself has stopped on them, and this description is the best fit for describing the work of the German photographer Howard Schatz. His photographs stunningly convey the elegance of a person's forms and, most importantly, his movements.
In the Action project, the photographer captured moments from a wide variety of sports, showing us how sophisticated and sophisticated even such simple and familiar actions of athletes as hitting a racket, swinging a golf club or jumping rope are. Moments of time are stretched and saved, a number of fragments are combined into one breathtaking image. The resulting result is enchanting and hypnotizing.
