Michael Paul, 34, a Gulf War veteran and a national champion in wheelchair tennis, doing the shot put during a track and field session this month at the Paralympic military sports camp in Colorado Springs.
I liked this shot because his face shows real determination and it shows how hard he is trying even though he doesnt have the use of his legs. I think it is also important to say that most of the USA's paralympic team this year were veterans of war. That include's another man Scott Winkler who is now a retired army specialist, who holds the paralympic world record for shot put.

good picture and a good cause but idk why the photographer took it from over head.
1.) you can't tell what he is doing
2.) more importantly, you can't really tell he is in a wheel chair
yeah, i thought that too. but i think the overall emotion of the picture kind of sets the other things aside.
