Artist Statement: Being an active 17 year old and interested in sports photography, I was very interested in getting a good snowboarding shot. After hours of heading out with friends and hundreds of shots I decided on this photo I took. The most important thing about this photo though was that I had a lot of fun doing it. Which is the most important thing when it comes to shooting photos. Find an intriguing subject and any photo you take will be fun, which is the exact mind set I had when I took this.
