Today was the running of the annual City to surf "fun?" run in Sydney
14 Klms from the CBD to Bondi.
2/3 of the way along the runners are confronted by what the organisers call "Heartbreak Hill" which if they were honest they would call Heart Attack Hill as over the years it has had far more than its fair share
75,000 registered runners relaeased in 5 waves of 15,000 each
first shot is of the leaders of the third wave; Nos: 30001 to 45000! That is the start line banner you can see at the back
Second is an attempt to be artistic
Third is as they exit the tunnel under KIngs Cross with 12.5 Klms to go. The winners are within 10 minutes of finishing and there are still 15000 who havnt even started
Nikon D1X and some old fart lenses and cheapo polarizers . Images werre all loaded straight to NX2 and converted to Tiff. Pano shots are stitched using PTgui. No post processing or cropping.
Oh and yeah my nose probably does look bigger than it really is in this shot, as I shot this with my oh so wide 35mm F2D, at about 40 cm away from my face, but hey this aint no cover shot for vogue :-D To reitterate, my nose really isn't that big, it's all the lens's fault
Gregory, There is absolutely nothing wrong with your nose..... that a bigger face wouldn't fix.
