CAPTION: A group of runners take part in the 5K portion of the Nashua Telegraph Santa Fund Run Saturday, Oct. 31 at Mine Falls Park behind Nashua High School South. Hundreds came out to run or walk a 5K or 10K marathon to raise money for underprivileged children.
THOUGHTS: This photo is pretty straight forward. Nothing too complex. I love reflection photos, I know they are cliché at times but I thought it was effective nonetheless. I waited by the banks of the other side of the river with my head down, to be on the horizon line, in the moist soil and leaves, avoiding to fall in the water. I waited for a pack of runners to be evenly spaced and in stride and snapped this off.
Cross country events are a challenge at times, this one was because they are so spaced out and if you don’t know the course can find yourself running alongside the entrants themselves.
On a side note, there’s no better place to be for a fall season than New England. What can I say, I love fall.
