Check out these two high school athletes at a swim meet. Both images were shot within 10 minutes of each other. Two different emotions from the same subject!
When I shoot sports images, I never rapid fire shoot–hoping that I get a great image. I observe and try to understand the motion, the light and timing to capture the height and drama of the action. Not every image works. But when the stars align-oh it’s a thing of beauty!
Which do you prefer?
Butterfly Stroke Intensity
Butterfly Swimmer
Both images were processed in Lightroom with some tweaking in Niks Viveza2.
