*** Official BimmerPost Photo Contest #57: "Action in Sports" ***

Theme: Take a photo of any sport in action. Try to capture a great moment such as the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat.

Theme rules: By sports, I mean real sports, not chess. Examples are motorsports, hockey, basketball, baseball, water sports, football, bike racing, etc. If it's borderline, just ask.

Do not take photos of sporting equipment, like a racket, ball, shoes, etc. We are looking for action in sports. If you do motorsports, do not just take a photo of a car moving on the road. Use your creativity... For example, it could be a person wearing racing gloves who is shifting, or a player throwing a tennis ball up in the air during a serve.

Important Dates: Entries must be submitted no later than Sunday, July 1st at 11:59pm PST. Voting begins the following day.

GENERAL RULES:
1. Any interpretation of the theme that falls within Bimmerpost.com rules is welcome.
2. You must be the person that took the photo. Previous photos are acceptable as long as you are the one that captured the image.
3. One submission per contest, and you cannot resubmit a photo that you've submitted before in a previous contest.
4. Images must be no larger than 1024 px in any direction. Links to larger images are allowed but you must have one that is under 1024 px for the poll.
5. All contestants must host their own pictures (which includes hosting them on Bimmerpost).
6. All images must have a title.
7. While post processing in Photoshop is allowed, adding or removing parts of the picture is not. In the event a photo is suspected to be "photo-chopped," the contestant will be asked to provide the original picture.

Good theme Chewy!

It gives me a reason to skip a practice and bring the camera instead of the gun

My all time best sports photo from 2009. "Oops, where did it go?"

I know it isn't great but I saw the theme and laughed.

yeah, I distinctly remember that photo... hopefully he didn't submit it to a previous contest. I'll let Badger search for it, since it's a pic of three topless dudes.
