Havent rollerbladed in 3-4 years but have been wanting to see if i could still do it since im turning 24 in a week (yeah i know im an old man haha). The rain finally stopped yesterday so I felt I had to make the most of it. Took my camera on tripod and set the timer on the shutter, then ran up the stairs and tried to time the trick right. It was a lot of work and none of them really came out but ill post anyways. The only thing I dont like about it is I had the ISO at 1600 from the zoo the day before and therefore the picture is really noisy.

ok img is resized, the actual photo is sharp just noisy. This picture has been compressed a few times. Whats the best format to save in Photoshop? If I dont shoot in raw and the photo is already a jpg then will saving it as something else in photoshop keep the sharpness or will saving it in a jpg again just compress (and unsharpen it) more?

Amazing you got it as well as you did. I would have been very happy with this result...

Have you tried to use the noise reducer for it?

LOL

It would be really cool to make a portrait of a 74 year old dude doing this!
