I was out late taking some long exposure photos of the glowing, coloured balloons on Place Stephanie. Out of nowhere a lone skater appeared and leapt off the steps in front of my tripod. I asked him if he would jump again and he agreed. I didn't bring my flash so all I could do was whack up the ISO and hope. I knew I wanted to freeze his action and shoot a burst. After he landed the jump he skated right past me without even saying goodbye... off into the night.
Afterwards I noticed some of the lights on the Hotel Conrad had blown. Not sure if skaters still say "RAD" (or if they ever did) but it makes an accidental title for the photo
