 Perhaps you didn't recognize me with my hair cut? :-)

No, I didn't REALLY run in front of a moving train. It's just slowly rusting in the park. I thought the idea of me wearing a dress shirt and tie would give it some dynamics.

Funny story, the picture I picked of the set I took is not the best. See, I started editting the best one (I had a slightly better pose) and then I noticed my friend who I went to the park with was on top of the train mooning the camera. I will so get him back at school tomorrow.

The end.

Good job with the motion blur, if only you could have done something with his hair it would be perfect. 8

This cracks me up. I give you high score for imagination alone in this one, even though it's obviously staged. In fact, the staginess is aprt of its charm. I don't suppose it will do especially well, but I score it high.

clever, I hope that that guy didn't get smoked by the "Canadian National" express. I hope other people can appreciate this as well. A darker or white border would have made this pop more.

Great idea, but despite the motion blur your model still looks still...

very close to be absolutely awesome!

I like how you've created the illusion of movement through blurr. Smart way to compensate for something which would have been downright reckless. Interesting image and creatively fresh. Good luck!

Your runner is too posed, would have been better had your runner done a couple of meter sprints for each shot you took as the motion blur doesn't show to me that he is actually moving, maybe its the pose, maybe its the tie?

wonderful idea, only you really don't look like you're running.. Keep up that kind of imagination though! I give you strong marks for originality.. (and for being Canadian)
