Not Just another NibbleBit Blog
One of those brave Diana-wearing swim peacocks I referred to in the previous post is Ukrainian Oleg Lisogor, one of the most beautiful men to ever don a pair of swim tights. Diana is the official supplier to the Ukrainian swim team.
Finneye took the first and final two images here in Helsinki in 2006 for Outsports.com. The second and third images were taken by a very fine swimming photographer, Enyo15, who has three portfolios of competition images here. One previous WetSpeedos posting from February 2008 of Enyo15’s photos from Berlin can be found here.
Enyo15 says that the swimmer in the red and blue British Diana tights in the foreground of image two below is American swimmer Ed Moses. That’s Oleg in the water.
Some of the bravest peacocks of the swim world — most of them Europeans — wear jammers, leggings and full suits by the Italian company, Diana Swim. I love not only their vibrant color palettes, but also the low slung cut of their leggings and jammers. The men who wear them aren’t too bad either.
Most of these photos were taken by Finneye for Outsports.com in Helsinki at the 2006 European Short Course Swimming Championships. If you haven’t visited these extensive galleries, then I recommend you click here. Finneye has a nice Flickr gallery as well.
One of these images was published here in my previous blog post from Finneye’s Outsports.com galleries. These are the first wallpapers I’ve published from Finneye’s work. I’ve got a lot more ready to post.
