It's not often you get to take photos with a talented performance artist and an assistant.

Daniel Blasco Marcos is a talented diabolo performer and stage artist with a lot of skill for juggling. Even though the weather wasn't great we worked to get some shots that might show case his talents.

 This has to be one of the first times I wished I could do video as still photography doesn't quite capture the art and finesse of Daniel's tricks.

Day 246

I took photos of some colleagues and their skate buddies and realised I really need to master my focus settings better because these guys were fast! Even though my camera has good focus I struggled to get the shots I wanted and instead had to switch to manual and just rely on them being where I wanted for a photo. I didn't get all the shots I was after but hope they ask me back again so I can use more lights next time!

Hand plant! 

Hand plant! 

I didn't realise how dangerous out off control boards are until one time it just decided to fly off and nearly hit me in the face at point blank range!

Flying Korash

Some days you can have a hard day and feel like giving up. But then you push yourslelf just a ltittle and the benefits and opportunities that open up make all that melt away and seem so insignificant. In my case I pushed to cycle over the river and see what was going on when I met Korash and some other amazing guys who really push themselves and do calisthenics. You would not believe what they are capable of and yet are so humble, honest and motivated. Check out www.calitary.com to see him in action!
