The Agony and Ecstasy

Both these shots were taken on the schools sports day.

They show two contrasting views; one of a friends little girl who is enjoying the race even though she came close to last, and the other shows the agony my youngster who had tripped over his rope and lost the race he had hoped to do well in.

Both images were framed to include supporting artifacts; the coloured hoops, and the group of children sat down in the background oblivious to the pain of their classmate.
In order to get the shots sharp, I opened up the lens to its maximum aperture, and increased the ISO rating to 400.
