From the very beginning, photography had the goal of displaying a scene from reality and thus eternally note a certain moment. Almost every scene had a movement recorded along with the moment when it was photographed. The need to show a movement in photography in history was because scientists could study human or animal movements more easily. Such photographs contributed to the sciences and they opened up numerous possibilities to prove the various theories that until then could not be proved. Later, such a form of photography began to gain more and more in artistic value and for this reason, many photographers began to photograph the movement which opened up some new horizons of photographic expression. In photography there are more types of motion views such as "blurry" and "frozen" movement, panning effect, chronophotography and stroboscopic photography. Each of the mentioned species has its own characteristics, but it is common for all of them that it is occur by manipulating the exposure duration. This work defines the concept and history of the movement in the photography together with the authors who have an influence on later artistic expressions. There are also described and explained the various types of motion in photography together with the technical characteristics that are needed to display them. In the practical part of this work, there is a series of photographs that represent some of the above mentioned types of motion in photography.
