[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hello there! :)

Again, you're about to see one of my skate shot as my friend is practicing in the half-pipe and try to fight with gravity!

PP: not much, since the light condition was good enough to get it right! :) since I don't have polar filter on my fish-eye, I made a little contrast change on the cloudy sky!

Have a great day! N-joi!

WOW!!!
true action here, Tom!
very nice number you captured. It's a nice composition with the boy in the amazing sky.
The only bad thing is the green tones. They are not so vivid. But it's a great work anyway!

Ah man! I wish I had that lens- nice equipment Tom!

The photo is great, when I was thirteen I was fixated on becoming a 'great' skateboarder- but I think I just wanted the magazine with the awesome images! :D

This photo is just as good as the ones they have in the magazines. Real nice, tight image. TFS.

Biance.

Hi Tom,

really really impressive gallery you have here.
And many excellent shots of skaters. I have hard time choosing my favourite :)
I was deciding between this one and another one.
This is superb because we can embrace the scenery of surrounding environment, cause we can feel the altitude and strong dynamics.
I also love it because of the board...so important graphics.
I know now what it means having a fish-eye for this kind of shots.
The result is simply fantastic!

My best,
Jeri
