Portraits more or less-CrossFit qualifier

Gretchen

Some "portraits" take at yesterdays' 2nd round quailfying work out for the CrossFit sectional games. The work outs are intense and fast.

I've been doing CrossFit for just two months now, and I know what this workout was! I can feel their pain! I like the light in the first one, but I wish I was seeing the face of the gal doing the hand-release push-ups, rather than her derriere. Or I wish the other gal was filling the frame. I haven't taken my camera to the gym...yet. I'm bettin' you could find some seriously intense faces and poses to photograph!

Our box is pretty small so it is really difficult to get the right vantage point because I have to constantly be aware of the athletes and where they are on the floor. There were 5 other athletes doing the WOD. I did get one of her floor level but did not like the exposure. Here she is on her 7th round of the deadlifts. Welcome to the cult. You'll have tons of friends if you bring your camera to the gym!!
