Skateboarders at Venice Beach
Venice Beach - Los Angeles, USA
Whilst working on a commercial project for LG Electronics we where shooting at Venice beach in California. Whilst there I noticed that the skateboarders there where not your run of the mill skateboarders, nearly every single guy there was a professional and watching them hang out and try out do each other was quite a show which drew large crowds. I couldnt help myself but turn my attention from our model to the incredible skateboarders show boating their great skills and managed to shoot a bunch of high energy sports shots of them flying through the air.

Thanks ^^
good pictures, with high, and the right image, congratulations
Man great photo and i would love to go there one time LA Venice beach would be a dream comming true..
@davidamsterdam Its amazing in just one strip of beach there is so much going on, tons of little stores ,muscle men pumping iron, crack heads scratching their arms and muttering to themselves, this skate park, basketball courts and of course the amazing beach.
I would reccommend if you ever make it to LA just start a bit further down and just walk all the way along the beach, its a bit of a catwalk show wherever you go.
@dks100 Thanks for you reply!
It sounds so good and i must say i know about what you talk because i have seen it in GTA5😂 But for sure it will be 100x greater in real life... maybe i will make a little money in crypto this year and i can go there with my family...
Wow, funny you say that, particularly if you rent a car while your there. It feels EXACTLY like GTA, I said it so many times particularly if you drive with the radio on. Keep on posting! But dont forget to work hard in your day job too ^_^ Crypto should just be a thing on the side.
Yes i understand i have 3 childeren and my own company so money is there but going to LA for 2/3weeks cost a big stack off cash so crypto might help me with that i must say i am doing well there but for me its a longterm investment because i have faith in crypto.
Good on you man, my bad for making assumptions! Yes I can imagine three children makes things a little more expensive :) Yes I think give it a year or two and you will definitely be reaping the rewards
No problem my friend!
I hope all will go Well with crypto and our goverment accept it like we already do... I Guess only time will tell us..
Amazing shot!
I love, love, love the first image. The fisheye lens did justice and I also dig the shadow underneath. Good job! 🤜
Thanks Mikey!

Incredible one fam.
Magnificent picture, great shot!
It is most interesting photo, but I can't believe it's just 1/200 sec @dks100. Are you sure it wasn't 1/2000?
Hi @lighteye thanks very much, I went back into my metadata to double check and your absolutely correct my shutter was faster 1/4000.
You are welcome, @dks100.
Wow, it must have been a great spectacle! And the pictures are simply amazing, taken just in the right time.
I'd love to be there someday.
