action shot
Frozen movement photograph
An action shot is a photograph or video frame capturing a subject in motion—a player mid-swing, a bird taking flight, a car rounding a corner.
The term emphasizes dynamic movement frozen in time, as opposed to posed or static images: She got a great action shot of the goalkeeper diving for the ball.
