Those are gorgeous Mike! Like Daniel I really enjoy the first one, but I also like the second one because of the clear water. Even the imperfections on the bottom of the pool are sharp as can be! Beautiful work, makes me want to head to our pool for the next swim meet.

The first one is good. I like the wide perspective, however, cropping slightly in more might help.

I agree with chris, now that I think about it...

cropping right below the top [divider?] would really focus more attention on the super sharp swimmer

Not 10 minutes ago I sent my bro an email offering to shoot his kids at their next swim meet. I've never shot swimming before and would like to do so before getting a call from an area newspaper to shoot some big meet!

Mike, what settings did you use for these shots? They look very good.

I shot these on center weighted metering, with apeture priority and +7 ev compensation. I used continuous focus and set the focus type to dynamic focus, hope this helps

I like #3 quite a bit because it's showing the two riders neck and neck. #1 is also great, very sharp focus.
