    I'm curious...in this setting do you just go and shoot, or do you ask the skaters if you can photograph them? In either case what's typically the reaction, if any?

    There's a skate park down the road from me where I just moved in Morgan Hill and (weather permitting as I stare at the rain) I've been wanting to get over then and shoot some skaters and/or BMX riders.

    Cheers,
    John

    I usually watch and shoot for about 15 min, figure out which kids are nay good. I take a few shots of the kids that are good and approach them with the pics and ask if they have any sick tricks they want captured. Then I set up and shoot. I've only had one person ever say they prefer I don't, I'm pretty sure he was very very stoned.:D
