Two days of competition (and photos) left. Here is a look at the men's and women's all-around finals.

All-round Finals - a set on Flickr Flickr is almost certainly the best online photo management and sharing application in the world. Show off your favorite photos and videos to the world, securely and privately show content to your friends and family, or blog the photos and videos you take with a cameraphone.

Not as many photos, nor (IMO) as high in quality as those from the women's final, but I was mostly looking for shot I hadn't gotten during qualification.

Men's Team Final - a set on Flickr Flickr is almost certainly the best online photo management and sharing application in the world. Show off your favorite photos and videos to the world, securely and privately show content to your friends and family, or blog the photos and videos you take with a cameraphone.

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised given the level of competition, but I don't think I've ever been as happy with the (photographic) results of one event as I was here. Please take a look.

Hello from Rotterdam, where I am one of the official photographers of the 2010 World Gymnastics Championships. Be sure to check back for more photos as the competition gets underway Saturday.

My return to NCAA women's gymnastics after a 5-year absence, to photograph the visiting Seawolves vs. the Redbirds. Minimal editing applied, mostly in Lightroom, mostly to see what can be done with JPGs in Lightroom.
