Off the Roof
Lens: DA-L 18-55mm Camera: K-x Photo Location: Milwaukee 
Posted By: ekim89, 02-18-2011, 11:33 PM

My roommate taking advantage of all the snow that we got in Milwaukee, although it's all gone now

He decided to jump off the roof of the porch with his snowboard. The pictures aren't all that great; it was my first time getting to use my camera for some real action shots and I figured this was a perfect opportunity for some practice.

Thanks! I sharpened the image a little bit in Photoshop

Haha, unfortunately the house may look awesome on the outside, but it is very rundown on the inside. It has tons of potential if a renovator wanted to dump the money into it...

Very cool action shots here! I think my knees would be permanently broken if I did that.

I would have been skeptic to do it myself, but Kyle was more than willing to try haha!
