Ironman athletes set off
Category - Event
[BPA2021-115]
Swimmers set off from the North Beach during the first leg of the Ironman triathlon event in Tenby, Wales, UK. Sunday 15 September 2019. The difficulty I had with this image was trying to find the best category to submit it in. It could well be in the landscape category, or even in the documentary. The sheer power by the moving hands had to get in in the Sports one. Photographing Ironman is not easy, having to get there early and walk around carrying so much gear. From almost 14 hours of shooting, this is perhaps the best picture from the event.
