 These are spectators and runners at the Chicago Marathon on Sunday. I took a lot of shots of puddles and shadows there. Hopefully, this is one of the more interesting. There were a couple of others I liked that might have been bolder choices.

Henri Cartier-Bresson would have been proud of that. Well done on a striking image.

So much to see and appreciate here. The entire scene seems supported by columns of legs and varied shoes. The puddle that provides the canvas opens up on a surreal urban carnival, bright and expansive. The roadway peeks through the water as stars-cum-confetti. The central man in shorts strides across like a colossus. It's fun and enchanting.
Personal favorite of the challenge.
