Swimming Toward the Shadows

It is so hot today that all I feel like posting are swimming images. Swim meets are one of my favorite events to cover. The elements that seem to make it so interesting are reflecting water, fast action and vibrant colors. You can not be shy when covering sporting events. What I mean by that is the fact that if you want the best angles and want to catch the action you have to move around and even sometimes get in undignified positions to get the shot. The most boring angle is eye level because we spend our whole adult life seeing things at eye level. Small children with a camera get some of the most interesting images just because they see the world at a very low angle. LynnFreeny.com
