West Hollywood Water Polo

written by dav.d

Swimming is 99 percent of water polo

Water polo – it is an awesome sport. If I can ever fit into a speedo again I will have to get back in the water. This weekend while I was photographing a wedding I had the chance to go to West Hollywood’s Water Polo practice.

And if I am not in the pool I do have my camera. Water polo is played in the water and so that is a challenge to photograph. Half the game is below the water with the grabbing and pushing and wrestling that goes on. The other half is swimming back and forth.

Click any of the photos to see the full gallery on my SmugMug page.
