Hot Brief "Female Rising" winning image by Robb Reece
Congratulations to the winner of the Hot Brief: Female Rising:
Robb Reece's image shows women as the protagonists - independent, strong and filled with aspirations.
Robb says: This is an image that was in my mind for a long time until I finally had the correct talent to capture it - two young ladies from a local university running team with strong, fast legs. Female athletes are getting stronger and faster every year.
I wanted to capture motion and speed along with a foreground of someone preparing to run. Two different parts of a story all in one shot so to speak. Using the perspective and lines on a running track is always a fun visual. I wanted to get just enough motion blur from the runner to show action while the other teammate looks on encouragingly. For me personally, I grew up racing and running on a track, so it always feels like home to me.
