This is one of my faves shots from you Tommy 
While the guy is not in focus, it still works imo as the surroundings are equally worthy to be centre of attention.

I absolutely love it - you see - you don't need a closeup on the person boarding when the background is so good, and the movement is so obvious - I think this is a teriffic shot!

ETA - looks even better in full - with the gorgeous little sprays of snow between the boarder and the ramp!

Thank God for that! I know you are capable of cracking stuff and this shot is more like it. It just has so much more impact with the dramatic scenery.

Hehe I knew this was more likable for you guys Check it out large size Azz, you'll se the snowboarder is in focus.
But as I'm sure you can understand, it's not always too easy finding backgrounds like this in the street! So need to work on how I can make the street look better Can't wait for the winter to come, just gonna use the whole season to experiment. No work other that photography =D

That's far more like it Tommy! I guess you are still developing (no pun intended ) as an urban tog... I agree, it takes a great deal more to capture the viewer's imagination in an urban environment opposed to one like this that speaks for itself. Great work.

Yep it is indeed @ full size Tommy! 
And some of your street work IS equally as impressive, like some of those on your website. It will however be difficult to beat images like this one, because they will always stand out more because of the natural beauty imo.
