53 City Daily Photo sites are featuring photos "a la Bob" today. Bob is a Barcelona photographer in our Daily Photo community whose work we all admire and whose penchant for featuring unique shots of humans in motion from the waist down inspired this theme day tribute. For my own offering today, here is a Seattle skateboarder beginning his drop into the bowl of a local skate park. To see several other of my own "Bob shots" (as Sally of Sydney has dubbed these waist-down shots), click on my More Seattle Stuff link.

It was 13 July, by the way!
I love this photo of hanging on the precipice. It gives me the heebie jeebies thinking about riding down that incline! (In my case, it would be crashing down.)
ReplyDeleteNice pic Kim!
