Sports Photos

The first photo in the group of 13 on the theme of Sports, shows an Afghan bodybuilder posing while another competitor has tanning cream applied in Kabul. Bodybuilding is one of Afghanistan's most popular sports.
Another photo in the New York Times collection very cleverly captures runners crossing the start line for the 114th Boston Marathon. (Those of you who run may be interested to know that Robert Kiprono Cheruiyot, 21, of Kenya, won in a record 2 hours 5 minutes 52 seconds.)
The angle of the basketball shot and its composition is stunning. It shows LeBron James adding Chicago's James Johnson almost reflecting off each other in the first quarter of their N.B.A. playoff game in Cleveland.
