This image captures the last 100 yards of a first time attempt at a

triathlon for my brother Stephen. He had just finished 16 laps in a

pool, 10 km on a bike and this 2 km run was the end of the torture. I

noticed this girl sitting on the last bend and wanted to get some kind

of juxtaposition going between exhaustion and relaxation.

I like the juxtaposition - well composed. Admittedly when seeing this in Rate Recent (without your comment) I saw it more as an unspoken "I can't stand the sight of this guy, I'll pretend not to be aware of his presence" monologue within the female. That interpretation was quite amusing.

Were you heavily polarised, or have you stripped some of the warmer colours out post-capture?

Thanks Seven. The title is indeed an intended monologue on the part of the young female. I did in fact take out quite a bit of the colour saturation on this image.

Colin, I'm glad there are people out there who can take a comment in stride... :) The world needs more of those.

 

Have a nice day,
