I love the look on his face! It says it all. The tone of the pic is a little reddish, but I like the emotion it captured.

Here's another one.
Thanks for the comment.

I like the pictures, especially the second one. Having run Marathons myself I can see and feel the agony of the runners as they get closer to the end of the run.

Though I may would have cropped the picture a little different, eliminating major part of the top and focusing more on the runners and their expressions.

What were you shooting this with? It's not so bad in the second but the first image is ridiculously grainy

An olympus E620, I think I over processed it.:er:

The first one looks like its out of focus and way too grainy.

yea, the first expression with the quality of the second would be much better, i also wish that you didnt crop the feet out, i like seeing the whole body together

I think the emotion is very good. It definitely strikes a cord if you've ever pushed yourself you can relate.

The image quality of the first one is rather low, and the second one I personally think it may have looked better with the guy on the left more towards the center.
