I love this shot, I can just feel the enjoyment he has sprinting.

Did you use a motor drive? what sort of film and lens did you use?

Thank you for your nice comments.

The photo was taken with a Tamron 70-300mm lens with a polarizing filter. I wanted to get the longest shutter speed possible yet still achieve proper exposure. If I remember correctly I ended up with a shutter of about 1/4 sec. and an aperture of f32. The film was Fujicolor Superia ISO 200.

Thank you again for the nice comments. He is a very cooperative model if properly motivated :)
