Capturing a Moment In Time

I have always looked at photography, among other things, as capturing a moment in time. One point of time, frozen forever, viewed as I saw it, and framed for others to see as I would like them to see it.

I recently resuscitated my Imacon Flextight Photo scanner and have been going back over some points of time that I have frozen from years past. This is one of those moments, taken back in the early 1980’s in Piedmont Park, Atlanta Georgia. Obviously triumphant at having finished the Peachtree Road Race, this woman absolutely radiates happiness as she collects her race commemorating t-shirt at the finish line. It’s a point in time 30 years past now, but do you think she remembers this moment in her life?
