Rome Golden Gala – 100 meter Videos Heats and Finals

Last Updated on May 27, 2011 by Jimson Lee

I purposely sat around the 30 meter mark to get a better view of the 100 meter starts.  I knew I could get the official video footage later with a view from the finish line.  It was also closer to the Women’s Pole Vault and Men’s Javelin. 

Getting a different vantage point is an interesting exercise in photography as well as analysis.

After each video, I repeated the video at half the speed for a better analysis.  Plus, I muted the audio.
