Supreme Effort
We attended a harbor festival today, which included a tug-of-war event with two teams competing to stay out of the water. Both were anchored to their respective floats by a gorilla in the rear (no offence to the big guys) but for these folks, who clearly put forth a supreme effort, it wasn't enough. A moment later, the guys in front got wet.
For this picture, which is one of two on this theme, I was trying to capture facial expressions. In retrospect, I should have aimed just a little higher to capture more of the spectators.
