Very impressed by the Michael Regan photograph in the Observer today illustrating an article by Andrew Anthony:

Michael Regan has captured the essence of exhileration.
Three figures are in focus, the left figure running as if he is compelled to use up his energy; the centre figure (Edin Dzeko) throwing up his arms in what seems to be a votive gesture (a thin halo of light seems to encompass him); the figure on the right seemingly transported into a trancelike ecstasy.
The rain falls down in dazzling droplets.
Out of focus other figures are crushed into dejection.
Far out of focus the crowd is anonymous, brooding, dark.
It's a fabulous photograph.
