This photo got ripped off - I think it should have been rated to 10

This deserved to to be in the top ten at least. The feeling of being in the action is superb.

Nice focusing...much nicer than either of the other two in my opinion!

Bold and interest to take the last runner, I like it. Nice framing by the other two.

Great use of shallow DOF to isolate your subject, like that you actually focused on the back player instead of the typically choosen middle one.

At first I was about to pass this off as just a blurry shot, but then... I got it and I like it

Cool shot ! I like the way his eyes work in this shot, and not sure if this was luck or intentional, but no matter - works well for the challenge. (6)

someone in this shot needs to be in focus and no one is.

Nice attempt, not sharp, hard to distinquish, color a bit muddy, light interesting, noise does not bother me, overall could be better.

Okay, the runner in the background is singled out using shallow DOF, which is a good thing. HOwever, compositionally, even if you envisioned your shot with the third runner in focus (meaning that it didn't happen by focusing mistake), I don't understand how this shot is interesting compositionally. You've included one eye, a nose, and half the mouse of the main subject. I don't think that the OOF people add anything to the frame.

Nice change-up from the norm. Looks like a difficult shot to get. Unless the effect's entirely postprocessed.

Congratulations on achieving something really immensley difficult. Even if it happened by accident, take credit for being there and having all the tools on the right settings. I don't think this will score what it deserves to through no fault of yours.

REALLY nice DOF focus on your subject. I love how the others are full face but his partial face is the focus. WONDERFUL !
