p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · How about some Rhythmic Gymnastics!


As most of you were watching the Superbowl, I was wrapping up day 3 of the Rhythmic invite in Cambridge Mass. This is the only Rhythmic gymnastics I cover a year, other than my other USAG assignments through out the year. Just a few shots out of the 40k+ frames over 3 days here.

Shot with D4 with 70-200, straight out of camera with minor cropping. Comments welcome!

Looks like so much fun to shoot. #10 for me. I think you could get away with cropping away floor and top and put it against a solid blue BG. The beauty is in the lines on this one... and I don't think a frame of reference is needed in this case.

Great work.

Thanks all. Unlike artistic gymnastics I can actually cover all events for all gymnasts. It is one of those low cost/high return weekends in terms of sales but it does take a lot out of me to shoot over 40k+ frames in the 3-day span. It is a beautiful and fun discipline of gymnastics to shoot. They can hold their poses longer, even the (over 180-degree) leaps in mid air seem to hang forever!

Great shots John! My daughter competed last year and I managed to come home with a few keepers. Unfortunately this year she does not want to compete so I have to catch threads here at FM.

John….these are truly beautiful works of art here. I'm in agreement with Paul looking like fun to shoot. I don't know if you noticed it but on #6…there is a piece of string or thread hanging….

Awesome work.
Frank
