This is a photo of Michael Phelps in the
London 2012 Olympics winning his gold
in swimming. As you can see he has used
a very large telephoto lens to get up and
close to the swimmer. This shows the
physical strain that this sporting event
has on your body and really captures the
moment of the event.
This is a photo of Manchester City winning the league in 2012. This photo like many
photos that Tom Jenkins takes truly captures the exact emotions at the time, this is
another photo like many of his others where he would have used a telephoto lens on his
camera to get a very clear image from a distance. this is what he is well known for and this
is why he is the main photographer for the Guardian sport sections.
