Flying Skateboarder

Posted on 10 October 2005

Shortly after taking this shot I was urged to move “because some of the guys want to come off the side of the ramp”. I quickly complied.

Great picture, I cannot believe that you got it over-exposed and stopped the guy mid-air as well.

When I lined up the shot I prefocused and exposed off the ramp. Quite a bit of tweaking with the GIMP ufraw loader and the channel mixer helped a lot too but it wasn’t easy – especially with flying skateboards and bodies just feet from my head!
I appreciate the comments. Makes the danger worthwhile!

Does anyone know of a way to find out the owner of a cell phone if you know their number? I see many sites for reverse lookups for cell phones but they charge almost 100 bucks.

All of the free reverse phone number sites have a fee after you put in the phone number. Anywho.com or whitepages.com or any of that stuff does not work since you have to pay to get a report.

Are there any ACTUAL free ones out there?
