Primary School Swimming Event

[goldfries]

I was covering a swimming event on 18th July (Friday) and the participants were from Primary 1 to Primary 6.

So sorry la, don't expect Olympic quality swimmers. :) These are just kids having fun, most of them jump into the water with tummy hitting the water straight on. :P

The participants are pretty much lack of swimming skills across the board. Getting a nice shot isn't easy as most of their strokes are either badly timed or just look like some desperate struggle just to get it over with.

Generally I don't have much ground to play with, it's all about spotting the better swimmer and hope to get a nice shot before it's beyond composition point. :)

Anyway, here are my best for the day.
