Hi Roger,
Beautiful sport photo again. Since I saw you biking series, I'm waiting to see some 'action portraits' from you, you do it great. Well balanced shot indeed, great DOF... I'm surpised you are able to do f1.6, unfortunately I don't have so good lens to do it. Well captured moment, excellent handling of light. I would be pleased to see some more of this event. TFS.
Best regards,
Kristof

Do you know...how I would kill for a body like this. And I HAD one...but DANG IT...I got older! HAHA! I didn't do track, I did volleyball, since I am tall. This is gorgeous ROGER, I love the bokeh here! Outstanding work! What a beauty!

Roger, these track meet shots are what first attracted me to your work ... I'm so happy to see more.
You've really captured her focus and intensity as she prepares to jump. Great shot. I am in awe of these women.

Hi, Roger -
You have posted photos of this incredible-looking athlete before - I believe her name is Allison Stokke and I read about her in Sports Illustrated. She became an internet sensation in high school because of her combination of beauty and high-level athletic ability. Your photo catches her in an interesting position preparing for her vault; her face shows her intense concentration and her body position depicts the impending release of energy. Wonderful colors and sharpness; the strong light and background are managed quite well. Your action photos are superb.

She certainly has a beauty that is striking. A lovely face and a stunning physique. Good timing of this shot, the light is perfect to augment the stryations and geometry of her arms' muscle tone.

The wide aperture has done a great job here, good sharpness on subject and terrrific bokeh on the background.

Very nice work.
