Over the Can

Taken on Kodak Portra 400VC film with a Diana+

Skater at the Venice Beach skate park. I'm so stoked that I caught this one! This guy was one of the better skaters out there. He had moved the trash can in front of the ledge, and I knew what he was planning. His first try he ended up hitting it a bit, but this was his second try. I had placed myself directly on the side of it and waited for him to leap over it. When I hit the shutter, I knew that I had captured him directly over the can.

That's one great thing about the Diana+ -- no shutter lag.

There was a whole group of us (plus several other photographers) shooting the skate park, and none of the skaters seemed to mind.

skaters eat up the attention, as long as the perspective you need isn't in a crash line with what they want to skate!
