Not perfect, but pretty damned good in my books!! Nice one, Mark. In addition to the swimmer (caught, as everyone's already noted, at just the right moment), I like the relatively calm water in the foreground, and the sudden disturbance of the water by the swimmer. Cool! Great shot. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
