Alright, this is more of a ‘just for fun’ post rather than any informative BMX post.  My good friend and NBL Elite Pro Donna Snow is a very cool person and we have a lot of fun at the track (yes, she’ll kick my ass in a race).  She just started competing in pageants here in Florida, and unsurprisingly, she won Miss Sarasota USA 2009.  I knew she would win - she’s smart, friendly, and beautiful.

So I had this idea for a ‘glamour’ photo of my rare pink Haro Sport with Donna posing next to it.  I mentioned this to Donna and she loved the idea.  I also thought it had a good hook to it, and we might be able to have the photo featured in BMX Plus magazine.  At the very least, it will be fun.  Keep in mind that I’m mainly a sport photographer, so I generally do not shoot models.

In any event, we chose Matlacha County Park as the location, and once we started shooting photos, the locas started gathering around, snickering and making comments.  When that started, Donna and I decided it was best to end our photo shoot for the day.   Some people might think this idea is lame, but I think it rocks.

In case some of you were wondering, I used a Nikon D300 camera and Nikon 70-200 AF-S VR 2.8 lens to shoot the photo.
