Low Angle

Regional Cross Country Meet
Granite City, Illinois
Photograph by Tom Atwood

I was not looking through the viewfinder when this picture was taken. The camera was literally at ground level, shooting up. So to see what I was shooting I would have had to lie down on the ground. Instead, I pointed in the general direction of Garrett Sweatt and Connor Ryan and got lucky. This photo tells the story of today's regional in Granite City: Sweatt won the race individually, but O'Fallon won the meet as a team. Shutter: 1/320; Aperture: f/8; ISO: 800; Focal length: 18 mm.
