  • (L-R) Almudena Cid of Spain with photographer Tom Theobald posing at banquet after World Championships at Baku, Azerbaijan on October 9, 2005.  Photo by Azerbaijan press photographer.  (Photo note: Well, ummmm is me in photo on right:)   I am sorry the photographer is not identified...he was just next to me and I asked for little help, set the image up and gave him camera.  Even bigger surprise was 15min later when Almudena asked for same photo for her camera.  This will very likely be the last photo of this gallery to be posted.  Hope you enjoy and cheers!

<br />
(Photo notes... With 400mm from favorite position during last days of WC.  Gala started and they had no spotlight man holding a beam on Irina!  Instead were some ummmmm, disco lights revolving for like a stadium rock & roll show.  By then I was just so tired and whatever, just do anything, get some kind of an image.  I went up to ASA 1600 @ 250th/f2.8 and prayed something nice would happen.  Come what may...) By photographer Tom Theobald
