New York: Union Square
Inspiration: Skateboarders are hard for me to photograph . . . they are moving so fast that they are practically gone by the time I focus my lens. Unless they are just hanging out, sitting around or reading a book.

LOL. Yeah -- I hear you. If I hadn't seen him roll in on the board, I would have thought differently myself.

Ha! Love it. I wonder if he was reading the same book as the girl the other day?
I really must post my shots of this girl.. it's not skateboarding, it's the other thing with the wheelie-skates. Totally blanking on the term. I'll let you know when I post it.
I love his whole look: the bandana, the tattoos.. he could be a film star. AND he reads! ; ) x
