Running at Sunrise
My friend Bob de la Mora invited me to join him for a sunrise shoot with the model, Mandy. We shot at Illinois Beach State Park which is about an hour fifteen minutes outside of Chicago. Being 70 years old (at the time…me, not the model) and arthritic, I had a tough time getting down (on the sand) to take this shot. (I had a tougher time trying to get up again!)
Mandy is into fitness competition. She won a contest the previous evening. But, running barefoot across sand with rocks and plants was a bit of a challenge. Nonetheless, she repeated this routine for quite a number of shots.
The final result is somewhat of an accident (one never knows quite what image one has captured).
But, I enjoy shooting fitness…running, exercise, etc., particularly, out of doors.
And, with all best intentions, I hope to begin a modest program of working out myself. But, the women will still be able to outrun me!

Stan, I doesn’t look as though you had any problems getting up in this shot. It’s a great shot.

Great Capture….. Glad you managed to get down and back up…. Love the halo that still exists even after she is breaking through it….
