Hi Rui.
I like this shot. The angle it is taken from and the clarity through the shot makes it very nice. The colors are nice and the lines leading us up through the shot create good depth.

Hey Rui,

I swim laps myself so I have bit of extra appreciation for this one. Love the gorgeous blue colour of the water here, and great use of the wide angle.

Hello Rui,
Great POV and sharpness in this shot. I like the way the swimmer's body is lined up with the line on the pool floor. The color of the water is wonderful. It is also interesting to get a glimpse of the other swimmer coming towards the one who is waiting to dive.

Hey Rui, great perspective here and nice tight narrow crop. The combination of the vertical lines and the inclusion of the row of flags provide a nice "criss-cross" fi you will.

Hello Rui! Very creative shot and crop here. Including only half of the swimmer makes this very interesting and unexpected. I also like all the parallel lines in the pool and how the swimmer is oriented with them. Colors and sharpness are very nice too!

This is definetly one of tour best shots. Very dinamic, it pulls you into the action...no doubt you could hang this one on a wall!
