177 - Puddle

Theme 274.

Photobucket

Taken during the 2008 London Marathon. I have actually got some other puddle photos, but I never decided if they fitted "Puddle" or "Leaf" better, and I've since done "Leaf"! Maybe I'll just post them loose! Anyway, this was me trying to recreate shots I'd seen on the Reuters daily photo slideshow (click "Editor's Choice" for each new day).

Oh, nice, Helen! Not only does it work for the puddle theme, but it tells a story at the same time. Very nice.

I saw this a few days ago, but didn't have time to post then - have thought about it a few times since, which I think is a sign of a great photo. I think it is as Linda has already said, not only is it a great "puddle" theme/shot, it is also story telling; especially showing that well developed calf muscle. One of your best IMO.

Great work. Your planning paid off with a nice capture...
