Brilliant handling of dynamic range.

I like it a lot,perfect composition and the sharp symmetry broken by the runner. Plus, as Andrew says, well balanced exposure.

A brilliant capture !

How did you manage to get the timing so perfect that the angle of the runner's body and shadow continue the line of the dwarf wall supporting the railings ???

Now add in the clouds and the sunlight and it's a 'WOW' shot !

Well done

Peter

Serendipity! As I was walking into the shelter I could see him in the distance. I thought I might be able to break up to the shot with him running through it. By pure chance I pressed the shutter when he was lined up with the wall. Thanks for spotting that; I thought it might just be me!

I completely agree, excellent photography
