Having been inspired by a well know action sports photographer Scott Markewitz a few years ago. Markewitz had taken an image similar to this for a brand ad. That image stuck with me for years and give me the desire to have a friend drive my truck up and down Independence Pass photographing local athlete celebrity Greg Strokes. As I rolled around in the back of my Tacoma trying to match shutter speed to the desired effect, manage my semi-working flash, and angles, and have my wild man driver go an exact speed, we managed to navigate the narrows of Independence Pass. Imagine all of this to re-create a look/image I saw years before. The challenge of getting a shot like is what made me want to do it. The Aspen Photo Challenge, a photography competition created the desire to go for it... Not sure why I hadn't before… Look forward to another shoot similar to this in the feature.
