It’s no secret that sports photography is one of my passions.
The sport doesn’t matter; I’ve photographed quite a few in my career. Golf. Lacrosse. American football. Soccer. Cycling. Tennis. Swimming and diving. Motorsports.
I can only think of a handful that I haven’t had the opportunity to photograph yet. (Boxing is the one that first comes to mind.)
So, when I see the World Sports Photography Awards for 2024 have been announced, it gets my attention. When the first photograph on the page involves my favorite football team and their nemesis, it REALLY gets my attention.
There are so many amazing images from across the globe. I think when you factor in that 2024 was a year in which the Olympics took place, the quality and number of images may be a little higher than “off years” given that international stage.
The awards page is one that I will be revisiting several times for inspiration and admiration. There are so many images at that one URL that it is impossible to fully digest and process them while enjoying my morning cup of coffee.
