Here is my contribution to the eighth and final round of RogueOlympics 2025 on the topic of "Klasse" (“class”).
I took the theme in the sense of “great result / great performance” and also wanted to address the Olympic Games in line with our Rogue Olympics.
The movie “Cool Runnings” came to my mind. It's a comedy that tells the story of the first Jamaican bobsleigh team and their participation in the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary.
Although the film invents much of the story and embellishes it with narrative and comedy, it is based on a true story. Ridiculed by many winter sports nations, the Jamaicans nevertheless managed to qualify for the Olympic bobsleigh competitions.
Although the Jamaican bobsleigh team only played a minor role in the rankings, they did achieve a respectable success.
After all, Jamaica took part in all the Winter Olympics from 1988 to 2002 and improved steadily. After a few years without participation, Jamaican winter athletes took part in the Olympics again from 2014.
I just love the courage and enthusiasm of the Jamaican bobsleigh team, as well as the funny movie from 1993 - in German that is "klasse".
I'm ending my participation in the Rogue Olympics 2025 with this picture of the "Finish". Like every year, I had a lot of fun, even if time was sometimes tight and some other things had to take a back seat.
I hope you like my contribution. Have fun and see you next year on this stage!
Taken on Sunday but processed this evening...I ad a lot of little air bubbles stuck to the glass surface of the fish tank I was using so it took a fair bit of clean up to get a usable picture which was a bit annoying...but I do like the result - this would probably make a good large picture for the kitchen.
Yashica Electro 35 GSN at f5.6, 1/500. Kodak UltraColor 100 (expired 07/2010). Scan = Epson V700.
I decided to finally post this, despite the bright spot covering the upper chest of the young woman to the left. Perhaps someone knows what caused this? I don't think it's an imperfection on the film; my guess is a wicked glare from my Yashica's lens.
