I broke a bone just looking at this picture.
(You captured the moment brilliantly. It's really crisp)

I used f/4 because the autofocus on my camera wasn't good enough, but it just ended up missing focus -and- showing the incredibly distracting background in gloriously crisp detail :)

So it's a real pic? I thought it was photoshopped.

cool, it looks like he's ollying underneath the minute maid whatever-the-hell-that-thing-is.

jethro: 10th Jan 2006 - 05:56 GMT

the words speak to the brilliance of the moment brilliantly ...

Of course this photo is real. I don't even like photoshop.

There are some extremely ghetto, broken up old parking lots -- basically just stripes laid on top of demolished building foundations. The east side of the CBD isn't exactly beautiful or modern.

And, yeah, he fell on his ass, rolling around in pain in the gravel.

...snapping a board wrong could really suck right there.

Everytime I see this photo, I can't help but to think that Ian placed that guy in there. I know it's not p-shopped but it just looks like it is... love ya Ian! ;)
