Perfect Timing

Perfect Timing · **4 Likes**

Once in a lifetime timing shot.
Doing photos for a summer camp last July.
Was running late to an event.
Got to waterfront just as first camper was going in the water for the bellyflop contest.

Raised the camera and shot.

Exactly right. A stunt, sure, but a stunt done /this well/ is art. Echoes of Cartier-Bresson's Gare Saint Lazare photo in terms of timing and humor.
