I spent part of a Sunday morning at the Chicago Marathon. This is one of my favorites of the group of shots.

This image has caused me to stop and pay attention. That means it is in my 7-10 voting band. (Voted earlier)

Additionally, it is highly interesting/eclectic meaning it keeps me here long enough to offer a longer comment and a vote of 8 or more.

This is one of my 9s - I like it a lot. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:

1. I always enjoy the use of blur, especially where is has 'structure' - I see that here.

2. Great title, I'd spotted the monopedal motif before I'd noticed your title, so the image communicates very well.

3. Super toning - good choices here.

4. The sense of dynamic flow.

5. The foreground discarded cups - still and at odds with the runners.

Overall, a most compelling image.
