We’re off and swimming again in Charlotte on the latest stop of the USA Swimming Arena Grand Prix. As is the case at these grand events, there’s a buzz in the air and excitement in the water. We’ve got some cool images coming from the meet thanks to sports photographer Mike Lewis who’s once again on scene capturing shots.
So the only person swimming at Ultra Swim is Michael Phelps? Great photo vault . . . really.
Mr Lewis, those are some of the best photos I’ve seen of Michael in action! Thank you!
Anyone saw MP`s cap? Rio 2016 ! 😉
Great pics Mike! The one of Phelps coming off the block is awesome!
So, MP’s new target is Rio 2016?!
I especially like the B&W photo of Phelps. He looks like a superhero in that photo. <3
Thanks Mike Lewis.
great photos Mike as always
Mike, great shots once again. What lens did you use on the 3rd pic or how did you get that effect? Tilt lens? Lensbaby?
Thanks.
Mikal
Hi Mikal – thanks. I made the third image using a tilt shift layer in post production.
The image labeled as Lotte Friis is actually Gillian Ryan. Wow, Phelps looks strong and fit!! (what else is new?) Nice pictures.
oops…. My fault.. Not Lewis’. I’m updating now. Thanks for the heads up!
