A couple [tag]skateboarders[/tag] met me at a playground in Wentzville so I could shoot some action shots using [tag]off camera flash[/tag]. I had my [tag]580ex[/tag] mounted on a tripod off to my side and used Pocket Wizards to remotely fire them. With some high shutter speeds, [tag]high speed sync[/tag], and a lot of luck, we got quite a few very cool action shots. These guys were great skateboarders and I learned a lot about the sport from them. I did a little experimenting with [tag]cross processing[/tag] and textures and you can see them all on my flickr site. But here’s one that I loved. I knew as soon as I snapped the camera that it was my favorite shot of the day. It’s almost like he’s hanging from the sun.
love this!! fun stuff!
Awesome! Me likey…
