I don't think the pictures really show a lot going on. I have found Skateboard photography to be a very specific, difficult thing. I have been shooting properly for about 2 years and have so much to learn to become better but I think it is something which requires detailed knowledge of the sport, lighting, and framing. Especially framing.

Have a look at these few I have done, perhaps others will post their skate stuff.

Great pictures.

Yeah I know the situations aren't great at all, it was more of just getting tips not on the situation and more on how the pic was taken.

I just was at a friends house and they were messing around.
