My teacher stole my bike, so I shot him.

This week was action sports week at Western. Ian Hylands, a mountain bike photographer, enlightened us to the secrets of sports photography. I finally got my pocket wizards working so I played with flash + action + outdoors for the first time. It was fun.

We didn't have anyone willing to ride the muddy trail so Hylands ponied up and did it, on my bike. He's 40lbs heavier than me and kept mentioning that he was bottoming out my fork. The bike is good though, I went for a ride after class and it was working fine.

I am aware that one of them is crooked and the rider is sketching out on the corner. oops.




Afterward we checked out the new dirt jump course in jordie lunn's backyard and I sniped some shots:
