Made in America Nastia Liukin

Nastia Liukin, a world famous Olympic gold metal winning gymnast for the United States of America. Originally born in Russia, moved to the USA as a young child and developed her award winning gymnastic skills. Hence the expression Made in America.

I really was drawn to her tough aggressive expression in this picture, with her face ready for competition and her arms cross, defensive in attitude and spirit ready to compete.
