Practicing at the Intersquad Swim Meet at Ohio State Thursday night. Here is the process. Why it is important to practice.
Too Early– Not off the blocks yet
Ooops, missed it. Too late, Not just off the blocks but IN the water
And then a couple where I felt I hit the mark better. Anticipating when the swimmers would be OFF the blocks but NOT IN the water yet
Used the Canon 70-200 mm lens on the Canon 5D. The one that was repaired a couple of weeks ago. It seems to be doing all right.
I felt I got some good action photography practice in as I watched the kids swim. Maura made it 100 meters Freestyle. That is a looong way for a 5 year old.
and by the parking garage in the late evening light
A quick pose for old Grandma. Thanks family. xxoo They are used to me by now.
Great sequence of shots!
I love, love, love the family photo! Everyone looks so happy! XXOO
The pictures are great – you are such a loving and supportive grandma.
Great shots. Life is GOOD
I LOVE Maura’s face as she sucks on her straw. Awesome!
I bet coaches would pay you good money for those “coming off the blocks” action shots. You can see a lot of “tells” in the form of each of the swimmers!
love this challenge Ruth, I have tried it with horse jumping once … great to see your family, I am always frustrated that I am not allowed to show any pics of my little Paris grandson … but everyone has their reasons 🙂
