Take a look at this. It's an example of someone who's mastered their camera so that impeccable timing becomes second nature to them.

Imagine getting a photo of a baseball bat as it breaks upon impact with the ball:

1st Photo

and have the skill to track the bat as it flies through the air and capture this sharp image a split second later:

2nd Photo

This impresses me every bit as much as perfect light, composition, or toning.

Since thatcloudthere posted his post in the other thread as well, I'm locking this one (even though he posted his first!)
