It was at a volleyball game during a time-out. One of the cheerleaders did some flips across the floor, when she got to the sideline, she stopped flipping and yelled at the crowd. In the meantime, another cheerleader did some flips and crashed right into the first girl. I'm kicking myself b/c I had my camera up and ready but for whatever reason put it down. But I saw the collision right before impact and just pointed my camera in the direction and this is what I got. (the blurry blob in the front is the collision, I was focused on the back wall) And to make matters worse, a third girl flipped across the floor and almost crashed into a Ref. After that time-out, there was no more flipping the rest of the night.
Now then, onto this contest... errr... how about we call it "caption suggestion" because it's really not a contest at all. Here's a little something from the Vandebilt Catholic High School girls basketball game tonight.
So there you go... caption away.
One of my favorite aspects of sports photography is stopping the action of a play. A photograph captures a split second of time... which allows the viewer to see details of the action they might have missed at full speed or on video. For example:
She didn't stay like that for long... and the crowd acted like "did we just see her make a pass while doing the splits?"
To be honest, I just thought it was a funny photo and wanted to sound smart by putting some photo talk in front of it.
Have a great weekend.
