Great action image! A very scary pastime and I can understand the danger in spinal injuries. Beautifully balanced image .

Great timing and action scene with wonderful interaction around the subject, Michelle. But ouch! Poor kid. And I feel so sorry for your step grandson. How awful.

Great documentary image Michelle. Some times it's good to count the costs before doing something, but then when you are young, who ever things of that ...

Terrific action shot Michelle!! We're all indestructible at that age. Heck I was a hockey goalie when they didn't wear face masks. I was lucky.

You have depicted just how dangerous this activity can be if not performed with some care, Michelle!! I can't help but cringe just looking at it and reading your comments!! Excellent capture!! Phil

Skate parks are good places for pictures opportunities. I think we all did thing in our younger years we now feel, I use to thing think I was going to be a horse back trick rider.

Your tones, clarity, detail & stop action are superb, Michelle! I guess we learn the hard way- I did! I still cringe when I see them do these moves though! Exceptionally well done, my friend!

Great action shots of the sidewalk surfers, Michelle. Water is softer, at least most of the time. I'll stick with surfing.

Fantastic captures Michelle, I love both of them. Sorry to hear about your step grandson. I can truly relate to what he must be going through, has he undergone any operations.

Wonderful street capture and in motion storytelling. You just cannot tell the youth of today anything. Maybe we didn't listen either.

I could be wrong, but it would appear that both pics are of the same skater ... either that, or they're twins 'cause they're wearing the exact same clothes and shoes! I think! Ha! Ha! Love both captures! My son used to skateboard a lot but never attempted risky stunts like his friends did! I'm glad! Sorry to hear that your step grandson is paying the price now for his adventuresome ways. Unfortunately, we can't rewind our lives. I think a few of us wish that we had done some things differently. Have a good night, Michelle! :)

Nice catch of the activity. I'm with Lorna - a few activities would have been done differently in my life had I the gift of hindsight at the time. But, as always, reflection is 20/20 :).

What is the saying...Youth is wasted on the young....I know I was there....didn't do much skate boarding...however...well we won't go there...I guess we all have our paths to travel in life....some of the paths are painful, mentally & physically....the price of being a human being....others are joyous and celebratory....It sure is nice to be able to make the choice....enough of "my philosphy 101"...cause that's all it is...is opinion...but I do have a clear opinion about this shot....Neat! both of them.....Cheers Michelle =^..^=

Ouch, the young think they are invincible. Right now my son is watching his 37 year old friend with a 5 week baby girl, die of a severe head injury.
