Hi Tina, 

It may look like that, but honestly lost in the crowd are some of the most
incredible women sport photographers at any of these games.

Eileen Langsley, a UK shooter, retired now, was amazing. She'd put the fear
of God in guys when she'd turn up with her big glass slung over shoulders, a
300mm with camera and motor on one and a 400mm with motor and extenders or
longer. :-)

And she'd quietly slip into a spot and shoot every bodies ass off! Then
smile! :-)

One of the most gentle and pleasant lady photographers I know. But damn she
was good!

You of course dear Tina are the gentlest and most pleasant of them all! A
fine southern lady indeed! :-) Not to forget you are a very excellent
photographer! :-)

Guys read this as, "I'm covering my butt big time here when it comes to
saying nice things about lady photographers!" And notice, I haven't even
mentioned Sandy Carter's name. :-)
