Wondered why you weren't at the top so read the other comments and though it didn't bother me now that the van has been pointed out I guess cropping it out wouldn't hurt the photo much. Though you would lose some of the leaves. I still like it alot

comp, color, contrast, lighting, all excellent.... meets the challenge with real wind.... priceless. One of only three 10's given by me in this challenge.

This image catches what so many images missed - falling leaves in the wind, and a clear view of a person interacting and moving through them. Cropping out the van would be better.

The runner's phase of movement is unlucky, and the composition is a bit of a mess.

Very nice! Excellent job of catching the leaves all over the place - some static and frozen, some still definitely moving. Added bonuses of the yellow jacket to echo the leaves, and the windblown hair. Truly creates the feel of a crisp fall day in the city!

The big leaf across his leg seems to be asking, "Sir, Are you my brother? You kind of look like a leaf!" :}

Great shot for wind showing the resistance of the runner and the flight of the leaves.

I think I'd crop in closer from the right to get rid of the car.

I like the leaves blowing but the rest of the photo is not very interesting - for example the van in the right corner is a little distracting
