Bryce Kanights




     Bryce Kanights is a famous skateboard photographer who's work focuses mainly on taking pictures of people skateboarding but not all of his work is just this. He also takes pictures of things and different events that deal with the culture that comes along with skateboarding. In the first example of his work he uses a skatepark as the setting of the photo he chooses to take this picture at night. The focal point of this photo is the light that seems to move around the skatepark which he does by slowing down the shutter speed so that the path of the light turns into one solid streak. The second photo is a skateboarding picture which is not easy to make. This picture is on the opposite side of the spectrum with a very fast shutter speed in order to capture the motion of the trick. The third photo is a portrait that he uses the side walk that the model is sitting on to lead your eyes back through the picture. He also chooses the color scheme in this picture to be black and green and you will see examples of this through out this picture. 
     Bryce's work was made to show people some of the things that go on within the culture of skateboarding. He also made pictures to record skateboarders tricks so that people could know what tricks were done on different famous obstacles around the world.
