À la Vitesse de la Glace


Hockey - At the Speed of Ice


The Russian Olympic Hockey Team


photographed at a low exposure

like an impressionist painting


using life as a canvas
light as a medium
and a camera instead of a brush


I believe if you can make lemonade out of lemons
you can make art out of a hockey game


Life imitates art

at the
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games

Prettiest hockey game I've ever seen. ;-)
Seriously, the strokes of bold color against the white ice are graceful and lovely.
