ok, so the day arrives when I submit a sportsphoto :lol: I would never have thought it possible. Well, ~neis69 and I went to see Sumowrestling. Very strange sport, with long preparations before each fight, which then in return is over before it begins. Maybe because I rarely looked outside the viewfinder, I still dont exactly get this sport, but it was funny to watch. I liked this particular photo, because it captures the two wrestlers in an impossible pose, frozen completely intermingled and off balance, splitseconds before they both slam, face first, into the floor. I dont know if its obvious who won, so I'll leave that up to you to guess ;-)

:lmao:
great pose and great capture!
but i don't think i could guess who won (maybe because i don't realy know the rules :hmm: )
hmm..maybe the one with his hand almost on the floor ?
:iconbleupencil:
I deduce it's the fella with his leg high in the air who won. He seems to have the upper hand there... or should I say foot :giggle:
My apologies for that rather bad pun - couldn't resist.

Fantastic capture though! I love it.

Without others thinking you are good, it doesn't matter how good you think you are.
