DESCRIPTION
If you never saw a freestyle motocross event in person I highly recommend you go to one. And if you are photography I also highly recommend you try to shoot motocross at least once. It's quite challenging because all the jumps are so big but it's very rewarding when you get a shot you are stoked on! Here is Colby Raha going sky high. AUTHOR
My interest in photography began during a time I was also really into mountain biking. So I was mainly shooting the landscape of the places I got to go on my bike. Since biking is a sport that teaches you the importance of waking up early, I’ve also learnt to appreciate the beauty of that early morning light.Since I’ve always been into sports it was a natural step to start shooting my friends doing sports. I quickly noticed that shooting during “the golden hour” led to shots I liked more. But then I started shooting sports like skateboarding and it’s very hard to talk skateboarders into walking up at 5am to get that good light. That was when I started studying artificial light.
Nowadays I travel with a pretty big amount of gear and place flashes where I probably shouldn’t be placing to get the shots you see here.
