R ecap: Five years ago I published a story about the 5K zombie race in Guthrie, Oklahoma. At the time I shared only a portion of the photos I shot during the race, relegating the remainder to Flickr . Since then Flickr have changed their terms of service . I’m currently moving many of my photos from the platform to this blog.
For this move, I’ve taken advantage of having a calibrated monitor to make some tonal adjustments to the zombie images. The previously published versions were too dark, badly lacking shadow detail. I hope you enjoy these improved versions.
This is the final batch from the zombie run, featuring pictures from the finish line. You can see the previous batches here and here .
