In He Goes...

Taken this weekend during the 3 day swim meet in Victoria. I took a couple of shots today in between work, laundry and various phone calls/emails but didn't really like them so I'm using this instead. Thanks for all your comments and favs, they put my last two shots on the PP!

Wow, what an amzing action shot. I am amazed that you can get so close. In this country you'd need a letter from the Prime Minister we are so unreasonably paranoid about photos of kids!
December 12th, 2012  
@seanoneill Ha ha. I wander all over the pool deck and take shots. I just take pics of my team but no one seems to mind. Sometimes there are professional photographers there that display their shots on monitors and sell them.
December 12th, 2012  
@kwind Just the way it should be. You've got the right attitude in Canada!
December 12th, 2012  
Woah, such a cool pov!!! Fabulous shot.

December 20th, 2012  
phenomenal shot - what settings did you use for this shot and what / how did you handle the focusing? seriously cool.
January 6th, 2013  
@bp Thanks, Brian. You can usually look up people's settings under the "exif" link in the little box to the right of the photo. Here's what it says about this:
Aperture: f/2.8
ISO Speed: 2500
Focal Length: 200 mm

I remember focusing on the foot of the swimmer just before he took off and then snapping away a rapid burst.
