Herein is a collection of "shiny pennies" shot by a girl named Emma with a pentax k10D named Penny. Together they dabble in portraiture, photojournalism, and sports photography, specializing in snowboarding, skating, and distracting social gatherings with large obnoxious lenses. The following will consist of a mixture of the above (follow the first link below to a specialized gallery, currently featuring snowboarding and skateparks).
Anonymous snowboarder at North Star Resort, Lake Tahoe, CA. Winter 2009.
Snowboard snowstorm, part of the crash series. I find snowboard and skiing wipeouts even more interesting than skateboarding crashes because from this point, this boarder could either continue in that roll and pop right back up and keep riding or tweak sideways in the roll and eat it really hard. Snow crashes are in much more debate from start to finish. January 2007.
Jamin, hiking up the snowhill to hit the same jump I sent him off about 12 times. Snow Valley Resort in southern California. December 2009? January 2010? Winter.
