Wow, great shot! Love the sky, the expression... just everything (even though skating isn't my thing).

nice freeze-frame action, but i don't like the confusion between the tree and his right foot. i'd have liked this more if yuou'd been lower and shooting up a bit more. also don't like the poor exposure. i want to be able to see some detail in the black.

I agree with the above comment (KK): it would have been much better if you had got some clear blue sky between the skateboarder and the trees (both left and right).

I have taken similar shots with a trampoliner and made the same mistake. You also need to choose the time of day carefully to get the best angle for the sun on the main subject. Perhaps you can set up another session?

Thaks for the small size. What kind of Photoshopping did you use on that postage stamp? His skin looks like dead fish.

The yellowish-green skin is distracting, is he part lizard?

I think this is a great grab (and I do like skate photos) but, like a few of the above comments, there ia a weird skin tone (and on his shoes) that distracted me right away. I would like to zoom in and check it out but there is no larger image.

It's pretty good, it needs a slight dose of flash to separate him from the background more, knock out those blown highlights and expose the darks better. I do like the angle and composition. Good shot.

It is a nice attempt thought the color is all out of whack. It doesn't look intentional either.

Killer shot. The body is perfectly composed, the board just hanging there... no idea what this deleteme crowd is on about. I don't find the foot/tree overlap distracting at all.

Not such a fan of the colourcast, but overall great.
