The Art of Speed Skating

Photographer Ewoud Broeksma Turns His Lens to Grace, Speed and Power on Ice

Dutch photographer Ewoud Broeksma is renowned for his arresting images of athletes, many of them Olympians. All the athletes shown below compete in speed skating, most in Torino. He told us, "They all seem to be eager now to be part of my collection; they know I'm serious and ART is the word here." Broeksma was generous enough to share these images with you.

Visit his website for more examples of his excellent work and to purchase a calendar with more images. Also check out the Original Olympics site.
