Hi Brent. Had to delete my comments otherwise they would look stupid after you told us how you took this pic :) Still very nice effort and imagination. Good job there if you ask me.

Hey Aam, your comment about motion was entirely appropriate as the shot was indeed mostly staged in that the only dynamic was me balancing on the back wheels. My left hand looks odd because I have the wireless remote in it, quite handy. If I were to re-shoot; I would experiment with wobbling the board around more and waving my arms to get some more sense of motion- it just might improve the shot as you suggested.
Thanks for your feedback!

Brent you normally need to get your shots at or under 140K in Photoshop & they will just scrape in under 150K at Pbase. Something to do with how Photoshop displays the size.

What a great perspective!

Thanks for your comments all. I know I should be wearing protective gear, but the only casualty taking this was my camera that got a few scrapes after tipping over. Some guys can afford a Ferrari to make them feel better when they hit middle age, I had to settle for a new skateboard here :-( I almost forgot I had this image I originally took for the "tilted viewpoint" challenge and didn't submit back then.
Thanks Rent; I reposted smaller although my original upload was exactly 150K- I guess slightly under that should be the maximum target?

This one is reading as slightly over the 150kb limit. Please fix :)

You're almost as handsome as me:-)...........You have more hair but.

Where's the knee pads, the elbow pads and the wrist guards and helmet? This looks seriously dangerous for anyone over 16! Great perspective! I like this shot! :-) CJ
