The track awaits the swiftest and the slowest of the runners. The photographer also waits, but he better get off the track before they arrive. Maybe it is the Tortoise and the Hare about to round the corner, so there is time to get the shot. Simple, but covers the parameters of the contest.

THis will make a good entry for the contest Tick. The lines and curves are there, clear enough.

You weren't to know but athletics (track and field to you colonists) is my favourite sport to watch. I think this is inspired Tick and will be great for the competition. The colours and composition are both wonderful.

I would love to see you in track shorts going round the 'bend' pal

Good vantage point for this!...Just keep waiting for the runners and you could get more 'Curvy' snaps!

Good one for the contest!

Well, that's the first time I've ever heard of being at the forward end of the bend in the road...For most of us, life is the other way around...

Nice shot, Cap'n...Faved...BOL...
