Thought I'd share a few from the final swim meet of the season. If anyone has any tips on keeping clouds in one place during a race, I'm ready to listen. C&C welcome!

    You have some nice bright glass. A couple suggestions:
    Try a polarizer. You will lose a couple stops and I think this shouldn't be much of a problem to stop the motion. If clouds come over for a race then you can always spin it off if you have to get that light back.
    As this is a swim meet, try to get a second competitor in the shot. It can be way out of focus and that's okay as it says race.

    Cheers,
    David
