The photographer's explanation of his photograph:I was in Barcelona for a week shooting the local BMX scene. Barcelona is definitely one of the most interesting BMX Meccas in the world, with many street spots where you can ride all day. After a hard day of searching for different spots, I shot this picture where an old man was angry with one of the local riders (Nil Soler), thinking that what he was doing was a bad thing for the city. He doesn't understand it's only BMX! After this mishap, which is usual in Barcelona lately, we continued our search for new images, new spots and new sensations.
From the comments:
The man in #13 is of course right. All this stunting should be limited to locations not in nature and not on other people's property including public space and infrastructure.
And despite the prettiness of some photos all this Red Bull crazy acting stuff is dangerous and people die in attempts to please Red Bull in commisioned shoots. So don't give away your photos for a tray of Red Bull or for nothing but a name quote. Nobody reads these but yourself.
Yeah, look at
photo #3 and think of
Mario Richard. Or — what the hell? — continue your search for new images, new spots, and new sensations.
