Taken at a skating park in Chandler, Arizona, about a mile from where Lisa lives. The boys who were spending that afternoon skateboarding and riding their BMX bikes at that park took a great deal of interest in what we were doing! Lisa and I want to go back there sometime when the lighting will be less harsh and contrasty, because I didn't get many good shots at that location this time.

My reflection and that of the flash are visible on Lisa's sunglasses.
