23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Runner on Fire
A solitary runner charges down a rain‑soaked city road at night, framed by lines of streetlights and their reflections. The soft focus turns the lights into streaks of orange and gold, so the figure appears to be running through flames. The photograph captures the fierce, almost obsessive energy of runners pushing themselves when everyone else is still sleeping.
