Nick McCrory of the US Olympic Diving team poses during a photo session at the 2012 Team USA Media Summit in Dallas, Texas. Portraits of the US Olympic team taken by AFP photographer Joe Klamar have been criticised for using awkward poses, wrong lens and lighting. Joe brushed off most of the criticism, saying that his "only goal was to show them as interesting, as special people who deserve their fame because they are the best as what they do".
