Show Me Adrenaline!

January 23rd, 2012
I want to see shots that capture adrenaline - not things that might cause an adrenaline rush like extreme sports, but actual adrenaline on the face or in the body language of your subject. Adrenaline is a very photographable aspect of humanity that isn't an actual physical quality.

Here's a shot of some raw adrenaline, getting pumped up right before a big game!

Sliding stop action during their World Championship run ... they actually won and became World Champs after it. There is something 'raw' about watching a horse and rider slide across the arena, and I have it confirmed that for riders this is an adrenaline rush.

@webfoot i really like the 2nd one - you can see it on the frontrunners face ...he is gonna win! great motion capture also. Is this cross-country running? I think I have the same shoes as the guy who's trailing... :D

@sixthblade Charlotte definitely has some adrenaline on her face, great stop-motion capture, and how awesome that she was the champ!

Yeah. It's cross country. The funny thing is, the second one is just a warm up before the race even started. That's my boy for you. ;-)

@catalfonso the Jenga shot is just wonderful - i love the people in the background and I can really feel the anticipation! the frisbee shot is also great, i love that you captured it just when the frisbee left the man's hand. #93 looks like he's about to strip a football! :D

@harsha I don't like the over-the-top photoshop blur, but that's a very nice moment you have captured.
