"The picture that I took was a picture of my cousin doing a kick flip off a little wooden box. I took this picture because it seemed like the right photo to take and tie into the theme of participate. Skating is one of my hobbies and I wanted to see if I could capture someone mid-air on a skateboard. I took this picture with my phone camera around noon. I used Photoshop a little bit just to crop it and turn it black and white. I feel like the timing was pretty good, and I did not get too much movement in the picture.

This photo ties in with the theme of participate because skateboarding is a very hard sport and you need to have good coordination. What I am basically saying is that participating is a factor in skateboarding. Participating is important in every team sport but also in skateboarding. This is why I took a picture of skateboarding, and these are the reasons that skateboarding ties in with the theme of participate."
