Skateboarding was born in the late 1940′s as a result of surfers wanting to practice their surfing skills when the ocean was calm, hence the name sidewalk surfing. Right in the heart of Venice Beach, California is a skateboard park which was packed on the day I was there. The skateboarders were unbelievable to watch and I had a blast photographing them. It was a good opportunity for me to practice shooting sports/action which I don’t do very often.
Have a great weekend everyone.
