Is this stronger without the runner? Thanks.

Thanks, Lluisa. And you're the guy with the empty streets of Barcelona #-)

I think that the runner is more than OK in this shot. It serves a purpose here. It also makes the photo less dead, which photos always are BTW, frozen moment.

The position of the runner is excellent and I have no complaints for the rest of the composition either...

Did you use filters? It seems like not... You should try, circular polariser and UV filters...

Jani - Thanks as always. I shot this with a digican that prohibits filters, but I'll stop by the camera shop next week and ask them what filters might fit my Rollieflex and classic rangefinders (Yashica, Minolta, only dreaming of Leica!). I use my film cameras for B&W and the digicam for color and to tell the truth I'm moving farther and farther away from color and digicam shots for anything except noteworthy occasions like my sons' sports event or political activities.

Nice shot.

I think this photo doesn't need filter, as the haze gives some depth to the picture.

I like the haze and the soft contrasts due to it.

I think the jogger adds a lot to the shot.

Nicely done.
