World Championships Photos
Oct 15th
Many thanks to Rick McCharles for posting a link to these FANTASTIC photographs from The Big Picture of gymnasts in action at the World Championships in London. I am so impressed by the photographs. There are also some great photos on examiner.com and a great collection of day 2 on Zimbio . It really is times like this when I can’t be there to witness the action, that I am so thankful for the internet and for other peoples gift of photography!
Feel free to leave a comment with your thoughts or to share a link of some photogrpahs or videos that you have found from the World Championships.
