Flint Hills Triathlon - 7 pics

Took the new cam out for this morning's triathlon, and realized that I have a lot to learn about it's various tracking and focus settings - LOL!

This was the midwest regional championship for the long course, and the qualifier for the World Short Course championship in 2008 in Vancouver.

Had fun, and learned some things for later use . . . shot with either the Sigma 70-200 mm f/2.8 + Sigma 2.0 TC or the Nikon 18-70 mm "kit" lens.
