| About |
This young man won the 11 years and younger National Lifeguard Championships with this grab in \"flags\" The officials used a piece of a garden hose instead of a flag. There was sand flying everywhere which is the kryptonite of digital cameras. Normally I would have gotten lower on the shot, but I had to consider my camera.

Ha! No point in losing while he's winning, Paul!
Good picture. You've captured his concentration and striving very nicely, while dealing with very bright lighting conditions. I like it.

Excellent capture right at the decisive moment. If you'd gotten any lower, you might have missed the cool shadows.
