Rare good freestyle picture

I'm by no means a pro, however I'll say I know a thing or two about swim photography. I figure I've taken about 30,000 pictures at swim meets. I can appreciate how difficult it is to capture a good freestyle picture in an event less than 200 yards/meters. The swimmers are just moving too fast, splashing too much water or breathing too few times to catch a good shot. At the state meet this year I handed my camera off to a fellow swimmer Ryan just prior to swimming the 100 Free. He got a few GREAT pics! He captured this split second frame of most of my face out of the water, really quite an accomplishment in a short freestyle event! I figured I'd share.
