Olympics Photo of the Day: Facing Forward, Looking Back
1 min read
In the artistic swimming events, team members can bring a level of intense theatricality to both their performances and their swimwear. Here, members of Team France pose just before entering the pool, facing away from the camera and displaying the faces on the backs of their swim caps, creating a bit of a mind-bending illusion. Photographed during the team free routine at the Olympics Aquatics Centre in Saint-Denis, north of Paris.
