Rowing Service Pictures: Photofinishes
These are photofinish pictures taken by the course camera at the National Water Sports Centre rowing lake, Holme Pierrepont, Nottingham, UK, during the week of the Festival of Rowing 2002.
Photofinish pictures are not "normal" - they are put together from very narrow "slice-images" taken by the finish line camera every 1/100th of a second. This is why boat, blades and even people can seem to be distorted - they have passed the finish line at different times and therefore in different positions.
The photographs below were used to determine close results during the Festival of Rowing. Click on the thumbnail to see the full picture.
