john and dumpsters

Since today was unnaturally nice, John and I went riding. He mentioned that he had never been to the wallride off Central Ave. I love this wallride, I could literally spend an entire day there just doing the same thing. But I also really enjoy wallrides…

Well, I think he liked the wallride, but within minutes spotted a pretty cool loading dock-to-dumpster. I mean, this was pretty big! I told him that if he was gonna do it, that I had to get a photo of it. So he waited and after letting him eyeball it (which gave me ample time to get my exposure as right as I could), he gave it a shot and pulled it first try. I wasn’t that happy with my picture, but I wasn’t about to ask him to do it again. So…

This was a test shot. I think in the end, that I liked this angle better. Not so much the composition, but the angle. Maybe anyway…

Here is the actual trickery. Even with my shutter at 1/200 he still managed to get just enough motion blur to irk me. Props!
