70 YO Finisher (SAM_7445)

Steamtown marathon 2016. The woman in the right of the picture is a seventy year old marathon runner nearing the finish line after running over twenty six miles. That is awesome. You go girl!

 

I used a Samsung NX500 mirrorless body with a vintage yashica 1.4 50mm lens. I have a lot of old prime and zoom lenses and I like using them: though for this type of photography, where speed is required, they are not the best choice. More suited for landscape or portrait I think.

 

It was a great race, well organized, perfect weather, and everyone was smiling. Well done Scranton.
