This is amazing. I sdidn’t know what it was at first but once I knew what it was… I was blown away! The shadow is perfectly timed.
Wow is all I can say.
God Bless,

Thanks Megan – I took it in 2006 at the Commonwealth Games. I spent about 2 hours chasing the light between 2 grandstands at Olympic Park in Melbourne. Shot a bit tight and lucky to get away with it as the shadow was way longer than I thought it would be when he came past.
