Critique SK8TRBOI

[jpgreenwood]

A mate of mine invited me to the local skate park to take some photos. A totally new genre of photography for me so it was a steep learning curve.
Think i messed up on my shutter speed on some as i was set up for on camera flash initially with a SS of 1/250. Although it does a dd a bit of motion blur. It was a super bright day so i decided not to use the flash. I eventually ramped it up to over 1/1000 and got sharper results. Still learning. Critique and tips more than welcome.

"Excellent" first attempt at getting these sort of captures Jason, some very usable material there.

Good stuff there, I`m liking No. 2 the most.

Wonderful set, an unusual subject but you’ve captured the sport very well

Sometimes a bit of motion blur is good, giving a sense of movement and life to an otherwise inherent;ly static image.

He does Parcour (?) also. Jumping and spinning in the air between buildings, walls etc!
