Interesting shot with a good angle. I like the filter, but I think I might like it a little more if applied at about 50%. Nice work with some fast fingers to get that shot!
This shot seems to be well thought out. Placing the skateborder in an almost vertical position puts everything an angle. This gives the illusion of motion while the object is in stop action. Great photo
It looks like you used the Shadow/Highlight feature in Photoshop. Yes, it brought out the detail but it gives it a very un-natural lighting look.
I do like the action shot though!
