How to get the perfect race finish photo? (Read 2965 times)

    Sorry: While I like the blowing kiss that I think I see this year, last year's shadow and leg strike make it.

      Actually the one on the right looks like she is holding her nose, getting ready to jump into a pool.

      Not at it at all. 

        yeah, I think I'll have to ditch the kiss blowing pose as it does look like something between holding my nose and getting ready to puke.  Maybe next year I'll do the one arm pump a la YES!  The clicking the heels pose just seemed dangerous.

          Since we are revisiting this thread, I had to share a follow up... Practice makes perfect!  After a rookie move in 08 when I failed to capture the 'N' , a completely unmentionable 09 attempt, I nailed it this year...well, except that you can't see the 'T'.  I'll give it another go next year.

            I don't know about perfect, but go here and type in bib 775 for some amusement.

            I decided to be goofy. I had fun.

              I love these! I would post mine, but usually the camera guy has packed up and gone home by the time I finish. lol
