Went back to Prospect Park solo to shoot round 4 of the Cadence Cup on July 25th. Rode my bike out there this time, which made getting to the park from Manhattan MUCH easier. Not having to deal with thousand-degree subway stations at 5am was a welcome change.
I rode a lap of the park to see if there were any additional vantage points that might make for interesting photos. Turns out, other than the start/finish line, the hill where Craig and I shot initially seems to be the best spot.
I shot this, and the Nautica Underwear Run with my new 55-200 lens. It took a little bit of getting used to, but I think the tighter crops vs the first race I shot is readily apparent.
Sunrise over the Williamsburg Bridge. I certainly could’ve made this a better photo, but I was in a rush. You get the idea (I hope).

Start/Finish. Kissena was well represented.

Motorcycle leading out the 1/2/3′s.

Back to the grassy knoll.
