Dust To Dust

.
Color Run 26

The junk the participants in The Color Run had to suck into their lungs was amazing. Where was the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Government Agency For Spectral Pollution (GASP) or the Institute For Chronic Kafkaesque Induction Of Purple Uvulas (ICKIPU)? All that colored powder had to coat the runners' bronchial passages. It covered my camera but was no big deal to clean off later. However, the participants should have been issued respirators with their white tee shirts.

  2. Like Olivier, that last photo is so impressive - looks like - I hate to say it - people running away from the Twin Towers on September 11th. I love also the close ups above. Wonderful street style photography.

    And what is this stuff they are breathing? Is it paint powder? That's surely totally toxic.

  3. How about OSHA? Did you see any runners w/ face masks? Seems like protection might be in order at points on this run.
