I love the b&w conversions of the first two! Great shots as well.

Thanks Sussi

Gary were is that foward splash coming from?

From the swimmer pictured ... this was a sprint ... after a breath a swimmer has to thrust his head into the water ... this is the backsplash ... swimming is a tough sport ... and I tried to highlight how so completely engulfing and problematic water is to a swimmer.

Thanks for sharing.

Really great images, Gary. In what must be quite a tough and samey sport to shoot. Nice work! :D

Gary, I have been swimming for 45+ years - My kids involvement has just ended after 20 years. I have never seen that much splash before from a efficient swimmer????? Something just looks odd to me.
But then again I just started with photography about 6 months ago and I'm seeing things in a different light. Please show us more.:)

Check out my photo site ... I have capture this splash on a number of swimmers ... not the long distance swimmers ... just the sprinters ... females have less splash than the males.
