I know I'm early but I don't dare :p

Here's my first PAD, Happy with some and not with others; I really would have liked to have had my flash gear by now- you can blame Dragon image if you want :p Was a little indicisive so have two images for both Architecture and Riding. Enjoy!

1. Riding- As said, im indicisive and unfortunately I didn't get a chance to shoot any DH. The first I love but the guy right behind the rider I feel almost ruins the shot. Both taken at Browns Plains skate park in Brissy yesterday- second time shooting BMX and loving it!





2. Portrait- Shot this yesterday too, didint really get the chance to do a posed set up as I have been crazy busy with uni, but hey its still a portrait!



3. Mid-flight- This was the hardest one for me, again shot yesterday. This kid sure has some skills on a scooter!



4. Architecture This I loved the most considering I'm studying Archtecture at uni! Got to combine my love for photography and architecture in one :D. First is Brisbane City hall. Second is a facade of a building which everything behind has been demolished. Strangely there are 4 different "styles" to the one facade.





5. Dirty- Post gardening



6. Speed Not so sure about this one. I wanted to try something different from the typical car but not sure if this does it justice... how about you decide :D

Cheers mate! Fully grown- that debatable, at 19 I'm still growing ;)
Should I add a disclaimer " I do not at all condone the riding or supporting of people riding scooters but for the sake of the criteria, heres a scooter!" :p

Architecture and speed at the same spot! sneaky.
Other than that, 'speed' is an awesome shot, as well as 'dirt'.
Work on more interesting angles for your riding shots, and maybe not just fly-outs!

Dirt FTW!

Nice PAD Sam. The clock tower is nice but I'm not liking the halo around it.

Cheers

Though not a great shot, I do love the natural rim lighting in Portrait ! As 24alpha said, Dirty is fantastic, definately the highlight here.. the halo around the clock tower, overboard on HDR or rushed dodge/burn ? Great work all round :)
