Marathons = Suck







I had to cover the Halifax International Marathon yesterday and, boy, was it a long day taking pictures of people running. I shot them running straight on, I shot them running from the side, I shot them running from above, I shot them running from behind, I shot them running with short glass, I shot them running with long glass, I shot them running with a slow shutter, I shot...Well. There you have it. I am lonely.

Nice pics Darren,

I like the one of the girl shot b/w the runner's legs. For more inspiration check out the magnum in motion link on this blog and click on marathon 04.

yeah - I saw that gallery and I really wasn't that impressed. I think the idea of the project is terrific, but the loose shooting made it kind of boring for me. I like the pic of the reflection and the only two close-up portriats at the finish-line, but other than that, dare I say...pretty standard.
