Eudlo! Such a fun little skatepark haha that first one is sick!
Had another street session, stoked on getting out of the skatepark haha we normally just skate the gap here but I was walking down to it and scoped out this angle, and got my mate to kickflip it. Stoked on the results. Enjoy!

^^ Awesome photo!
yeah beagle ultimate props, thats perfect
That is the best! So sick
yer top stuff beaglee
haha thanks guys!
I guess I’ll be the party pooper and say Beaglee get back there and reshoot it! You’re so close to having something transworld-worthy!
Go back at the same time so the sun is the same, and set up your flash the same too, it’s perfect. I’d suggest two things to improve on:
1) composition. You have his shadow cut in the top right, you’ve got a bit of sky in the left, the roof is cut on the left. You’ve got those 4 rectangular windows in the middle juxtaposed with the diagonal beams. I think if you got in a bit closer and made it tad tighter it would be better
2) trick/timing. You may know better than me but this isn’t a capture we normally see. I think you might be a tad late.
oh, and clean up your clutter before you shoot (your bag and tripod)
my 2c
haha, I could see that coming
Gamblor I thought you were gonna mention the camera bag and tripod sitting on the ledge
I semi agree with Gamblor for once on the composition comment. Timing is nearly perfect though. I think one thing you could do is Have the skater a little higher in the frame, and tighter as he says. The juxtaposition thing is a little too deep if you ask me…I know what he means though. Sorry if I sound like I’m negging here, I’m really not, it’s a great photo. Not my fave from you, but still really good!
haha shit! I knew I should of moved my bag and crap :/ hahaha yeah timing is off by a bit, and I did crop the right a bit haha
I’ll have another gander at it and see if I could photoshop some shit! haha
It really is a great photo though. Hope I make that clear!
haha I’m still loving it, cheers man!
hey guys, lots of good tips in this vid:
