Women's 10k run

I did it again. Woke up at some god foresaken early morning hour around 5am to go take shots for my friend's action photography project. I don't know how I got suckered into doing this... I told him "I'll think about it" then suddenly I'm given instructions where to show up and what time. I bet that sucka did it on purpose because he knows I'm a pushover. :)

It turned out pretty fun despite having to get up early. This was a race sponsored yearly by Straub Hospital to celebrate good health.

No no, I'm not intending to do this regularly and turn into an action photographer. But it's good experience for my photography hobby. In this type of work, you don't have time to think about composing your shots, you just act and shoot. In fact, we're told to try not to get too fancy with things and just try to get as many people as possible...but I still can't help myself trying to find shots that I can be somewhat proud of.

Out of the 1000 or so shots I took this morning, I have a few that would sum up my morning pretty well.
