I like them. Good shots taken in difficult conditions. Interesting composition as well.

The shots in daytime are at f/16 and the ones at night are around f/8 i think. but i used two different flashes in all of those shots.

No. 3 is awesome. The rest are good also. Try and go for a wider crop nextime tho. Just a suggestion.

thanks for the advice

HAHAHAHA!!!

ok, NOW it's on, mr. leaveit!!

you harshed me for my lg action sports crops being too tight because all i show is air. now you tell mr. jimbob to "try and go for a wider crop"! what do you want....shots from a mile away??

i'm just sayin', bro....maybe it's the way you say it, as if you know the rules and you're handing out advice. i've looked at your stuff, and you know what you're doing with the camera, but hey, there ARE no rules!

so, here's MY suggestion...next time try and go for a little more tact, like this:

"sweet shots, man. i like a wider crop, myself, but you did a great job of capturing the action."

oh, and for the record, jimbob, i think your crops are fine!

peace, out.

wp.

haha thanks barP

Wallride K grind is the best shot in my opinion. Very very nice shots. Being a skateboarder myself, I've been meaning to do more skateboarding photography, but it's getting cold in PA, haha

Nice shots
