Nie composition and lighting. Bonuses for the sky, set and leafless trees.

The fill flash you utilised here really paid off.

thanks for all the replies.

I used a 20D, and two off camera flashes(2x 430EX's). On slightly behind me and to the left, and one to my right on the other side of the wood that he is about to land on.

I love the colours! So vivid. Very nice clear photo. You have the perfect sky in that picture! I love it. Great shot. Like you said a fisheye would have been amazing for that shot.

Sweet shot. Great colors and I like the composition. The figure in the background is a nice touch.

From a typical photography point of view its a great picture. But from a skateboard photography point of view the composition isn't that great. The lighting and everything else is perfect except for the lurker in the background.
