Comments on Repost -- Kid on Skateboard

• The green is nearly a neon and really sets this off nicely. I personally think it's best his face cannot be seen since he's a child. You captured him in a good stance. I enjoy watching kids skate like this and have tried to capture them, but it didn't work out. Nicely done, Dustin.

• Finally a skater with the senses to where a helmet ;-)

• I like the acidic green colour and the lighting on the (rather fashionably dressed - like the shoes!) kid and the sense of anticipation.
  
  The helmet is touching, I bet his mum made him wear it.

• I like exposed barrier and the contrasting with greenness black background. Great work.

• Fantastic light! Love how he almost glows in the darkness!

• Cool shot -could be my nephew. I like how he's isolated in the light with the everything else fading to black. Kind of a synopsis of how many of us felt when we were hat age.

• I never learned this skill. COncrete hurts when you fall on it.

• An excellent composition. The light on the skater and the green fence really grab the eye. Interesting shot, great capture Dustin.

• Superb use of light. I love photos like this one, using a selective lighting.
  Young street punk, eh? :)

  Self loathing you say... Interesting. I'm my own worst critique as well, but self loathing? Sounds harsh...

• This really has the 8mm feel to it. As an ex-skater it conjures memories of freedom and busted lips. Very hip photo.

• The lighting on the skater is wonderfull sharp and in focus. That contrasted with the softer brown and green really sets this image off. Nice work.

• Nice night shot, like the strong vigneting, it gives a movement feeling.

• I have to agree with some of other comments here, a great atmosphere to this shot, the lighting on the fence and skater and the vignette add to the mood

• The lighting is fantastic and like the huge helmet. Also like where the He is located in the frame. Good One!
