Jeff Forney, Photographer, New York

Description

This dynamic action photograph by photographer Jeff Forney captures a skateboarder performing a high-flying trick suspended mid-air above the smooth concrete bowls of an outdoor skatepark. The skater wears a helmet, protective knee pads, a graphic t-shirt, and shorts, gripping the deck of the skateboard against a bright, clear sky. In the background, several other figures stand along the perimeter walls of the skatepark near palm trees under harsh daylight. The composition utilizes a wide-angle perspective emphasizing the height of the jump against the expansive open sky.
