Fuji RFP, ASA 50, underexposed one stop to increase saturation. Handheld, wide open at around 180/210mm. As you can see, it was close to noon/1PM, which helps on contrast and color saturation. What's also quite evident, when compared to Fun In The Sun is that the water gymnastic class' mood had clamed down, but the fun never stops ;-)
thanks for the comment. I believe the shadow in her face drives the eyes to the movement, the action, more than if it was more exposed. But I've managed to don't let it become a dark mass so it'd look weird.
I had the pleasure to take a look at your portfolio and found your vision very unique, which is nice.
