The Lakota East Gymnastics Invitational was almost a week ago and I still agonize over the images I did not make. Gymnastics was never a sport I attempted or watched growing up so I struggle photographing it. At the Invite I only had a few schools to photograph so I spent a lot of time watching the other gymnasts perform when I had some down time. It helped some but I still have a long way to go before I consider myself great at gymnastics. I did get what the schools needed but I would love to truly show how amazing these athletes are in their sport. Next year I think I will find out practice times and go to a few just to watch and learn. Here are a few of the ones I liked from the event, all available through the Game Proofs link above.
