I thought I would do an experiment today and photograph an athletic event, but not actually photograph any of the action. Instead, focusing on the athletes and coaches in those moments between the action. I did it as a challenge to myself to see how I could. Results weren’t bad, but I’m not expecting a\u00c2\u00a0Pulitzer\u00c2\u00a0either. Still I had had fun; it was a great way to see swimming in a new light. I have to admit, getting up close to swimmers with a camera, while they are wearing a Speedo, is a little nerve racking! Takes a while to get comfortable photographing someone when they aren’t fully clothed. But I guess swimmers are used to it and don’t mind.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n
