Brings back fond skate memories... :)

Ultimately though, I'm not sure what this particular shot is trying to say...

To busy, seems to lack a central focal point. Just to busy in my opinion. I would have brought the skater as the focal point, shortened the tunnel view as a start.

AL's right on the money; too much detail. Shooting position should have been farther in the tunnel (or use longer glass) and waited 'til the skater was closer in order to have them fill more of the frame.

I agree that bringing the skateboarder much closer to the tunnel would have made the shot more powerful, but i still like this shot. To improve I think I'd try to dodge the graffiti in the foreground of the tunnel and make it even busier to contrast against the lone skateboarder on the busy background. Just my :twocents:
