Does anyone have book titles they can suggest dealing with the theory/

philosophy of photography?

Not how tos...

Canon 5D and 30D- 300 f2.8, 70- 200 f.2.8, 24-70 f 2.8 and 85 f1.8.

I didn't consider setting them up at one end of th lane and shooting down the pool or using the diving platform and shooting down. Both will look good.

Thanks s for the suggestions. I'll play around with both.

I will taking images of some swimmers portrait style at an indoor pool. There

will be 4 total. Pool has excellent diffused lighting. I want to shoot them

as a group in the pool and on the pool deck. a couple questions:

I want to use the 300 f2.8 ( I will be using it to cover the events at the meet)

or stick with the 70- 200 f2.8. I know the 70-200 is a "better" choice but I

want to shoot from a distance. Part of the shoot is to pose them in the pool.

Has anyone experience in setting up the shot of swimmers in a pool? Using he

lane ropes to lean on or lie back on? Leaning on them would emphasize their

mucularity of shoulders which would look good.

Also, I think I want to lie on the deck instead of shooting from above.

Capturing on their plane instead on higher pov will look better I think.

Anyone with experience with this environment who would care to advise would be

greatly helpful. I am playing around with some posing ideas and could use more.

I will be in london over December. Really looking forward to it. I have a done

a lot of research on the standard locations to shoot- mostly dusk shoots. I

have my shooting itinerary for these locations.

But I would like to add locations that are off the beaten path.

Can anyone recommend locations where they took some great shoots that are not

part of the regular tourist scene?

I will be located in central london.

Thanks in advance.
