could be a little sharper, and the colors are a bit dull. I like the idea of racing your shadow, though.

3 things would have helped IMO. 1. Faster shutter speed 2. Focus (duh) and 3 a lower angle

The focus is going to hurt you here, a faster shutter speed would have done the trick. It seemed to be a pretty bright day, so you could have increased your ISO and set a faster shutter on TV mode instead of letting the camera choose your settings.

Otherwise - good shadow, colors and exposure. I would have cropped out the fence in the lowere portion of the picture.

The focus is a little out but the idea is good. It looks to me like this was taken over some distance....try getting a bit closer and using either a tripod or gently push the camera down into a support to prevent shake.

would be good if it was in focus, but you probably got a lot of that already.

The whole photo here looks very blurry. More focus and possibly a different angle could improve the photo.

first of all, it is not sharp... but even if it were, the photo is just not very interesting

I find it too blurry. Sorry.

Too out of focus. Subject is a bit uninspired. The green field distracts a bit. A shorter shutter speed would definitely improve this shot, but maybe a different point of view even more.

who won at the finish line

Good idea. For me, the runner could be a bit more in focus.

Lacks some focus, duocolor could have saved it?

I prefer photos with sharp focus on at least SOME areas of the pic.
