Although I like all three of these websites, the one I found the most helpful and informative was the 2nd one or the Olympic photos. The site not only features beautiful photos of exciting moments from throughout the Sochi Olympics but also gives the stories behind the photos and tips on how to achieve photos just like the ones they took. The primary tip I found repeated through all the sites I looked at was fast shutter speed so you can really capture and freeze the moment. In sports you want to see what's happening more than you want an artistic photograph. It also says that since there is probably many other photographers photographing the exact same thing be creative to produce the best and most exciting image. I really thought this website was useful cause it showed a variety of ways to capture the event while still adding compositonal techniques and producing beautiful images not boring ones.
Excellent review. Lots of specific information. Might have addressed directly how you know the website is reputable. 99.
