Mikey P murdering a satellite dish in NC.
Went to the new raleigh park today, which turned out to be the ribbon cutting ceremony. It actually ended up being pretty empty after the ceremony, cause I guess no one is dumb enough to go on the grand opening day. But we actually scored it fairly empty. Sessioned once, then had to make a trip to the emergency room, and 6 stitches later, we returned once more and shot these photos. Then headed to wake forest to skate Factory. All in all a fun trip.
I was thinking about this photo the other day, and thought I would look it up. One of the things about skate photography, ecspecially with a fisheye, you have to get in so close to get a good shot. You also have to be sure to get the skaters face in the shot as well. Well, the problem with that is you have to place yourself in a pretty dangerous spot, making you vunerable to flying skateboards. On this particular shot, Tom was going for a feeble and shot his board out, luckily (thanks to my cat-like reflexes) I got the shot off and got the camera out of the boards wrath. My shoulder wasn’t so lucky.

Shot this kickflip of Tom in a cool little spot underneath MLK Parkway.
Shot some photos for Tom Hyson outside Whiteville, NC. This guy rips.
