Excitebike
It’s exciting when photos happen by complete accident. I was out shooting something that wasn’t coming together in the way I’d pictured at all. Engine sounds kept roaring in the distance and I thought someone was doing some heavy-duty mowing. Looking over, I saw a kid on a dirt bike 15 ft. in the air! Instantly, I decided it was a much stronger possibility for a photo than what I was trying to do:
Turns out there were three of them riding and I swear when they saw me taking pictures they started getting even more air on their jumps. Total show offs but hey, I can’t blame them, I was truly impressed!
It’s funny because my friend Tristan and I were just talking about how we missed the game Excitebike on Nintendo. When I was taking this picture I totally felt like a kid playing the game once again – except with a little better graphics:
Oh memories.
