Yesterday down on the Pacific Beach Boardwalk I stopped to photograph a group of skateboarders jumping the rocks in front of the main Lifeguard Tower. We had a great time as they pushed each other to do more and higher tricks. Before I left, they asked me to do a group shot for them. This is what I got, which I think captures the crew nicely. I choose Monochrome because I felt it best presented "Vibe" of the day. I also didn't level the image because I liked that extra bit of character it gives to the moment. Once again I choose to shoot the VM 21mm Color Skopar all day to help me learn it. This lens requires an different approach, getting closer, and more intimate with the World. It provides an interesting perspective that I do like for street style photography. Still learning, and enjoying the Leica experience.
I will post some of the jumping antics later.
Sweet! Love it. No please excuse me while I go and do some ab crunches.
