Comment by JPR: A little late on this one I think. Should try to catch him on the top of the pop not on the way down but it is nice to see skateboarding in this challenge. I hope it does well. I was looking through old challenges for skateboard photos and was shocked to see how poorly some great images scored. I think some people just simply don't like skateboarding/skateboarders or they don't think it qualifies as a real sport. Best of luck.
Comment by yanko: I guess the literal depiction is what gets this rejected? Not bad but nothing is a real standout. A crisper less limp looking flame would have helped you a lot.
Comment by ltlmschrisss: Well I googled Verdugos to see what you were talking about (I thought it might have been a different language) After seeing what they were it really made me wish that a wider expanse of the mountains were visible. At this crop I do like the composition though.
