Sports Perfect Timing

Perfect Timing · **19 Likes**

Shot photos for a camp last week. Was running late to a camper belly-flop contest. Approached the water-front just as first kid was going in the water. Raised the camera, quick focus, and shot. Had no idea the perfection of the timing on it until I got back to my room. Not as sharp as I would've liked, but perfect timing none the less. Enjoy!

The sharpness is on the water, not the camper, but jeepers cripes, that's good!

I am just thinking of the pain at moment of impact.

Sometimes sharpness has to take a backseat to perfect timing. This is one heck of a shot.

An extraordinary capture!

Congratulations on a fantastic photo! Capturing a split-second moment like this is extraordinary.

Great shot, I loled when I saw it!
