[QUOTE="Blue439, post: 822904, member: 53455"] Sailing has been the sport of my life. I practiced it at a fairly high level (back in the day, there were no “professional” sailors, and those who made a living out of it were frowned upon), which means that I had no time and no inclination to take photos while I was doing it. Later, and for a few years around 2010, I photographed regattas of classic yachts. I was quite into it for a few years, and the photos I will upload below are from that period. Many of my pictures were published, a few won awards, and one of them even won me a very expensive (in the range of 600 dollars) jacket from the UK brand Musto! :rolleyes: [B]Of course, everyone is welcome to post their own sailing pictures here.[/B] Aside from sailing, I have not photographed any sport, except competitive riding, and more specifically eventing. I am not a rider: on a horse, I can barely tell the front from the back, but for a number of reasons which would be too long and uninteresting to explain, I shot a lot of eventing, also around 2010–15, and even made a book about that wonderful and little-known sport. I will upload them for your enjoyment (I hope!) in a separate thread in this Sports category. [I]Mariquita[/I] racing off Marseille. All EXIF were stripped from this one, I guess the camera was the D3 or D3S, the lens a 70-200mm Nikkor, or the 200-400mm.
