Outstanding! I've liked this photo since it was entered, and I can't believe it's taken me this long to say so. I love action shots like this, and the colours & framing are just right. Well done.

Alexeig, thanks for the remarks. There really wasn't much room at the top, because that is almost the way I framed it when taking it. The picture was tilted and after straightening, I had to apply some cropping.
If this picture wins (maybe even top 5), then I will have to find this kid and give him a nice blown up picture.
Great capture. Nice illustration of the fact that it is perfectly possible to capture movement with fairly modest equipment. I wonder how it would look if you leave a tad more space from left and top
Blademeister, good cature. This reminds me of when I was a kid, in a previous lifetime! I hope that your skate boarding star got to have a copy of this image, I bet he'd really like it. Susan
