I think I'd prefer a *little* less contrast myself, but I love the framing of the shot. The way the top of her right hand and foot extend out of the frame really works well, IMHO. Catching just part of the woman holding the finishing tape on the left also adds to the dynamic feel. Great composition. On a practical note, you also got the sponsors names prominently, but not obtrusively, into the photo. You may laugh at this, but it can really make a difference in selling a shot. Very good work indeed. Last half marathon I ran was about a year ago and I barely managed a 1:23 (though it was a hilly course). Dare I ask what her winning time was? 1:10 or so? -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
