Planning the Angle



I enjoyed taking photos during the Barnsley Lifeguard Competition.  I also was able to plan some photos.  I made these photos by working the bulkhead at the other end of the pool.  While I captured the action, it is relatively boring.  A better shot would have been much closer to the swimmers, but on the side of the pool.  Head-on, there is very little to see of the entry.  If I was at the side, I would have gotten some great profiles while diving.

Oh Kevin! If only this shot were a fraction of a second earlier where you could see the swimmers' faces as they leaped into the dive.

Does you camera have a decent burst mode?
