5th Place
Runaway ( Del Shannon)

by Katherine Stanback's Photos

I was watching the race horses train, and one got away. He ran several laps around the track before he was caught.

Thanks for the comments. I didn't see how he got away - I don't know if somebody fell off, or if he pulled away before a rider ever got on - no ambulances came, so I guess no one was hurt. It wasn't a race, they were just practicing, and there were horses going in both directions, and some were just being led around.

Excellent shot. I don't go to horse races, but it appears that the horse is running in the wrong direction. I especially like the colors and saturation, a warm feeling. I assume this horse didn't win the race. -- Chris

Run, baby, run! I second everyone else here, Katherine. Wonderful motion shot. Contrasting colors of horse and infield also quite eye-catching.---Deb

Great motion shot! I hope that there isnt another picture of a stunned rider laying on the ground.

Great capture Katherine. Poor thing wanted to runaway! Havn't heard that song in so long. Nice action shot.

Beautiful shot, Katherine. You can really feel the horse flying! Helen
