Who I Am...Hello, My name's Matt and I am the photo editor for RunnerSpace.com. Go ahead and post any questions about the photo section on this profile. We're working hard to make the photo section more user-friendly and functional, so keep checking back for improvements. We invite anyone to post pictures on the site. I hope this site can connect runner photographers (pros and ametures) everywhere! Every event I go to I see tons of people taking pictures, if just a few of them went home and uploaded their best shots we could make Runnerspace the go-to place for running photos around the nation. But that's all up to you all out there, I'm just here to get the ball rolling! Matt Latest Blog Update
Photo of the Week—August 27th
So...the Olympics are over, but we've still got one more for you from Beijing courtesy of Mr. Kirby Lee before I revert back to the regular riff-raff of events that we'll just have to tolerate for the next four years before London rolls around. Don’t worry, it’ll fly by. So here it is, you're last Olympics photo for a very long time!
Pretty sweet eh? But you’re probably asking yourself, what kind of elfin magic did he use to make that sweet time-warp effect, right? It's called a ‘starburst’ effect, and here's how you do it: Set you're camera to a slow shutter speed like 1/60th or so. Then, at the same moment that you push the shutter button, zoom in on your subject with your telephoto lens. Try it at home kids! Latest Blog Updates

I went and bought my camera last week, applied for a press pass a few days ago and lucky for me, my first picture experience was the Pre Classic! If you know anyone who is looking for a freelance photographer, let me know! I'm new to this whole site, and its a little confusing! Is there a way to upload a whole folder at one time? I was uploading 10 photos at a time. Is it always this slow of a process?

Annie, a current runner at Mississippi State Univ. had to do 4X1600 and what better place than on an Olympic track? You are exactly right with the "zone" i was trying to capture in the pic. She was in between number 3&4 and gettin ready for the last one...Oh, and thanks for the eternal glory and runnerspace honor! haha
