Like All Good Things...

Bones Wheels used a photo I shot last February of Rodney Mullen welcoming Rodney to their team. For you camera  nerds out there, I used a Canon 5D, Canon 15mm Fisheye lens, one Quantum Qflash directly behind Rodney and Pocket Wizard Multi-Max radio slaves. Click on photo for bigass image.

I am a Lucky Guy


I have had the fortune to have been in the right place at the right time through the years.
Sure, part of getting the right shot is Skill, but I count myself lucky for being around Skateboarding in a golden era, the 80s.
All I had to do was load film in my camera, move a couple of lights and the rest is history.
This is Christian Hosoi premiering his signature move, The Christ Air in 1987 at the Sellar's "Perfect Ramp" in Mesa, AZ.
