Love the first shot from top. Great diving pose and superb timing, Thomas!
I doubt anybody can match your manual focusing skill. Practice makes perfect so they say!

Agreed with KK. Your manual skill is superb!

Daniel,
Great series indeed with amazing diving poses!
The third one from top is real sharp while the rest is touch soft. Perhaps it's the ss and/or panning error ...
