Default Hammer Throwing (Athletics)

Round 4 of the Mid Lancs League at Preston Arena on Saturday. A lot of my shot are quite flat out of the camera due to the very bright mid-afternoon sun, not a lot I can do about the start time of events, but I think this came out OK.

Nice shot! As a former college hammer thrower, its nice to see the sport getting some interest.

Thanks for the comment Dave

The Mid Lancs League is quite near the bottom of the rung in athletic events in the UK, but there are plenty of people taking part I think they start at under 15, at this weekend event I guess there where 30 hammer throwers male and female.
