During my work at the InterClub Competition for our Section called Algoma. All different levels and categories from little angle bitters to teenagers. I was actually making sure the sound systems kept going & playing the music. These skaters are not what we call the real Competitive, they are at a lower standard of skating, but it gives them a chance to compete & qualify for all of Ontario.

This young lady was almost finished with her program and was doing what we call a lunge. I took over 700 pictures and still have around 600 to work on for the parents. I do not get paid for this, just do it for fun. Hoping to give the parents a picture of their children in action.

Used Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 to bring out more detail and brighten it up some, then used iPiccy.com to bring it down in size plus add the touch of framing.

Hope to do some commenting today. Also would really like to "Thank You in Advance" for you comments and kindness.

Hope you've enjoyed the view. Have a beautiful day, ♥ Skates &heart;s

Pat, thanks to your effort too, young, mostly talented, people get the opportunity to enter the fascinating world of skating. You've visualized a part of this/your 'world' in an excellent way.

Great capture. Think that the charming young lady and her parents will be proud of this capture, and even think you as well.

Very well done, my friend.

Pat, because of you, now when I see Snoopy and the others skating along in the Peanuts Christmas special I think of you. Great shot here.

Well captured Skates. It is nice of you to give the parents photos of their children.
I like how the frame matches her outfit.

Very well captured Pat - and it's looks like a good lunge too - I like her arm and hand positions.
