marathon for a photographer Photo

Photographer’s Note

Today we had a sport event here in Düsseldorf. Marathon!

My focus was the young photographer lying there for the best perspective.

My respect to all these women and men doing the 42 km.

Hi Nino - a fun image! the photographer seesm totally relaxed down there, as if he's not even taking any notice of the marathon runner. The colours here are great too.

Hi Nino

A good photojournalistic style of photo capturing the keen photographer. I like the shallow dof & perfect sharpness. Tfs!

Hi Nino
Intriguing shot which shows a pro photographer in action...but good of view to have spotted this photo opp. with the passing runner. The shallow DOF works well here. Good job Nino!

This is so interesting how marathon photographer works. Man, this is a nice idea to show people what you saw. Good job. Sothy

Hi, Nino...
Very good one...
It makes me smile...photographers are rather crazy people...aren't ? Crazy, strange people...lying in the pavement....when they don't go up on the roofs...: D.
Bravo for this document.
Best regards. Grazyna.

Thats the problem with photography. Sometimes to get the killer shot that stands out you have to make a fool of yourself. Well seen Nino.

Some are lying, others are running... the capture is fantastic, Nino, love your focus on the photographer, I guess I would rather do the lying on the concrete than 42 kms of running... ah, those incredible runners...
A delightful shot well captured Nino! :-)

[BIG SMILE], I have find myself in those weird positions several times looking for that angle that matches a image on the mind's eye. Kudos to the photographer, kudos to you. Like you say, all my respect to the athletes.

Cheers,
Enrique

Hello Nino,
an decisive moment for you to capture the professional photographer in this position,ready for action.A good composition with outstanding colours and perfect light.The light blur of the people that watch the marathon, make the running athlete and photographer to separate from the whole scene.Well done.

Regards,danos
