In this 2012 Olympics image of rhythmic gymnastics, the photographer used the technique of stop motion to literally freeze the gymnast in mid air. He used a fast shutter speed to stop the movement. He may have used a low F-stop to blur out the background and keep the gymnast in focus. He used a long frame to emphasize the length of her legs across the image. There's tension between where her toe nearly touches the hoop and the perfect form of her legs and bend of her back.
