This is a new crop with a better color balance. Does this lookreasonalbe to you? How could I have improved the composition?

The trees to the right of the driveway spoil this for me - the photo could be improved with a chainsaw ;-) Would it be possible to get in closer with a wider lens and a slightly different viewpoint to reduce the effect of the trees? Otherwise it's great - the early morning light is very well rendered.

I think the chainsaw option might be a little drastic. I wonder if you need to take a little thought about what your subject is - the runner, the trees, or the college? At the moment it leaves me confused - too many things to look at, and tonaes too uniform acrtoss the picture area. I suggest a shot with much shallower depth of field, focussed on the runner (if he would kindly come back and try again), and the college thrown out of focus but still quasi-recognisable. I'd like to see what it looks like in a mist, too. Other than that, there's the chainsaw.

Lovely lighting. A bit crowded, but I still like it.
