You should post them on this site. Lots of people hate having to redirect to another site. I'm sure you'll get your pics noticed this way.

Some good shots there - for the single runner shots I might have been tempted to try to shoot straight down the road at them so you could have isolated them better from the background to give them more pop. Shooting across the road I find the background a little distracting. Also, try shooting from a lower viewpoint too.....it gives the subject more presence in the frame.

However they are good shots nonetheless!

Your pictures do not show on here. There are 6 links that we have to click on, which opens a new window and THEN we see the picture.

Is it just me or do others members see the 6 links?

Nice shots! Only suggestion is using a fill flash or something because the trees see how their emiting alot of shadows on the runners? For example on Image 1, see runner #52? Also on number 3 it's a bit overexposed, wow 72 years old! That guy is sweating a little :D Go grandpa! Nice shots :)

Thank Zohar
Was all bit rushed, late on arrival, will be better set up next time :( yes shadows created a problem,
