What a superb shot! Great lines and dof. The selective desat is flawless, awesome!

Its now official...Your backside is way nicer than mine lol

Super desat job (which is made even better by the tight dof which just means that you dont notice the setting at all and are just drawninto the subject) and I love the clarity of the muscles of the runner, really portrays the fitness and effort she has and is putting in

Lovely and different action/sports image

Very well composed and executed...and completely underrated IMHO. :)

Wow look at the muscles on this woman! Love that your photography caught this. Interesting use of selective desat.

the desat does it for this shot.. without the desat it would have been boring and just another runner shot. I love the detail of the toning and muscles in her skin, the perspective/vanishing point of the road.. it all makes one great image. The title could be better... but I don't vote on titles :)

nice take on the challenge, i think i might have prefered her in the distance, thus giving a feeling that she is ahead and we are all looking at her back...but thats just me

Nice muscle tone -- I envy and admire her. This is one of those rare instances where I think selective desat works.

Your choice of selective desat for this shot really works well. Nice focus. Hard sometimes to get that right with a moving target. Great DOF. A touch underexposed but overall a nicely done shot!

not so sure I like the selective desaturation here. I like the composition though, 7

Nice composition. Think I would have liked it better in full color though...

I hope ya don't get killed by the selective desat Nazis :-(

there's a lot of muscle there! This is Melbourne right? I like the bokeh of the lens and the lights in the bg. nice composition...perhaps a little more contrast in the bg would have been good...8
