Starting Line

Fifth Avenue Mile, 2005 (This morning)

And yes - Matt - no do-overs allowed. Each millisecond before the gun goes off is different.

The reason I forced myself over to the races this morning (I have a cold) - is that no one really knows much about the races or cares. No crowds. You can get that close. 50mm - not cropped. I have other shots but this was my favorite when I took it so I scanned it first.

Nice one! Now that you're shooting film, one wonders if the image is from this afternoon, this month, or even this year...

And I walked across the area where the Cross Bronx Expressway was being excavated - dynamite caps all around - when I was in 2nd grade (what an expressway Mr. Moses)

Wow! I love all these. You really give off a good sence of motion in so many of your shots. And your still shots also have a life of their own. It's all so amazing!
