Κωνσταντίνε γεια σου,
πολύ δυναμική η σκηνή με τα νεαρά κορίτσια να κάνουν την άσκησή τους μέσα στο νερό συμμετέχοντας στην συγχρονισμένη κολύμβηση του έλαβε χώρα στο Βόλο.
Εξαιρετική η ποιότητα της φωτογραφίας όπως και οι λεπτομέρειές της.

Σε χαιρετώ,Δάνος

Hi Costantino
Nice action view captured at the right time. Good framing and the blue water offers a good BG. I think it must be a hard sport.

Καλή συνέχεια και καλό απόγευμα,

Hi Costantino,
a fantastic capture of this sports scene. Its dynamism and the speed of the movements of the synchronised swimming were a great challenge for a photographer, but you have solved this problem with a good skill.
The result is a good photo, with good exposure and beautiful colors.
Well done, my friend.
Best regards,
Josep

Hi Costantino
Another shot, feast for the eyes fast action full of colors and your timely shot is precise with the main star at full stretch filling the frame efficiently. Again the inviting water combines this to make it looks so delicious to the eyes, and good that there is still some space on top of frame. Your time, patience and commitment are so well rewarded and appreciated also credit to these proud talented young stars. Great light, sharpness and contrast, well frozen with hint of motion effect and dynamic.
Congrats, TFS :))
Kind regards

Hi Contantino

This was marvellously captured. Great timing. I don't think these ladies get enough credit for their athletic abilities. There is no doubting them here though. I give you credit for finding a unique subject too.

Take care,
Tosca
