F8 and be there..... Great shot Knarf, especially with the lead in story, I love seeing his right foot off the ground, too bad you didn't capture his left foot (looks like it is off the ground also).
Kenneth Waller -----Original Message----- From: frank theriault <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: PESO: Deliver or Die I could be wrong, but that motto started among NYC messengers at least 15 years ago. At the recent CMWC (Cycle Messenger World Championships) in New York, this fellow had an accident several hundred yards from the finish line (I didn't see the accident, so I don't know if anyone else was involved or not); note the "tacoed" (as in "bent like a taco") front wheel. I was standing about 50 yards from the finish line, when I saw him running by. It was a one shot deal (not having motor drive or anything), so I was glad when I saw on the neg that I caught him mid-stride. IMHO, he sums up the spirit of competition that was evident at the event: It's not when or how you finish, it's that you finish. http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3579327&size=lg Now, after all that, I don't how good the photo actually is, but I rather like it for my own reasons that may be independant of the quality of the piece. Comments are welcome. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson ________________________________________ PeoplePC Online A better way to Internet http://www.peoplepc.com
