OR....

Blurred background:
For SLR users or even point and shoot cameras, set the AF to center focus (some have a "sports" setting for fast moving objects). Depending on the camera, usually have one of these features, even sub $200 cameras have something similar. Using one of the focus points make sure it is pointed on the object you want to be focused. Snap and the background will be blurred. AF mode = AI Servo on SLRs

Clear background:
Set shutter for high speed and the background will be clear and focused along with the object. This option is more limited to your camera's features.

Correct me if I'm wrong, some of you more experienced photographers.
