Manly Surf Carinval Shots Part 1
Combination of shots from today at Manly Beach:
Geoff
Special Moments Photography Nikon D700, 50mm 1.4, 85mm 1.4, 70-200 2.8VR, SB800 & some simple studio stuff.
This may sound weird since I commented how I didn't like a b & W from this location in another thread, but #2 is excellent. here the B & W treatment means we are drawn quite strongly to the centipede of swimmers that makes up the image.
#3 is great too - really nice sharp action shot Peter

The last one has an element of humour to it - I like the lifeguard's smiling at the camera while the people in the water behind them look a little pissed that the beach is closed (there's a few there with their heads hanging, and they're all heading out of the water).
The first one, while sharp, I think is let down by the swimmers in the background, as they take the urgency away from the runner. Agree with Peter on the B&W - works nicely here 
The other one could have benefited from either a different angle, or closer in may have helped
Looks like fun in any case Geoff *** When getting there is half the fun! ***
