Our local skatepark does not have lights so it closes down early in fall and winter. This year on Halloween the local board and skate shops gathered some other sponsors and brought in a couple of those portable generator light trailers often seen on construction sites and had pop-up shops, a DJ, skate and costume competitions and a giant cake for all to enjoy until 10:00PM. Even with flash I have to go just after sunset because there is not enough light for my autofocus so this was a treat. Quite a few people showed up and it was a good time. This is lovely Alex whose bride outfit loved my lights.

Strobist: All Flashpoint lights triggered with a R2T. 600 Pro behind her to the left at full power and 200 Pros slightly in front of her to the right and left at 1/2 as I recall.

"W. H. Dutcher of New York City, the Great Roller Skate Contortionist, is open for dates and can be engaged by responsible managers. W. F. Orr, manager, North Adams, Mass."

 

A nineteenth-century business card for a "roller skate contortionist" named W. H. Dutcher. Wikipedia mentions a Carola Trier who performed as a "roller-skating contortionist" in the 1940s or 1950s, and the Richmond Dispatch newspaper, October 27, 1885, p. 2, contained an ad for the Richmond Skating School, which sponsored an appearance by "H. H. Golden, Champion Roller-Skate Contortionist."

 

The only contortionist I've heard about previously was a stationary one--see Knoto (below).

Pier 8 offers an outdoor roller rink. Lots of good skaters, although I did notice a few beginners nervously edging their way into the spinning mass

I've seen several skaters attempt this move and Ash is the only one I've seen make it so far.

Opening up the UK had been made more difficult by the emergence and increasingly rapid spread of the 'India' variant, but the Government intends to open up fully on 19 July - all precautions ditched, which has provoked disbelief among many. Vaccinations are being pushed to cover both younger adults and those needing their second shot. Meanwhile, providing vaccines to poorer countries and cutting international aid have become very topical.

 

Since the March 2020 lock-down for Covid I have taken the opportunity to upload shots from before September 2010. In-between contemporary shots, I am uploading photos pre-SPNC, from the days of my old Olympus E-1/E-330/420. Not many are any good but the exercise has given me an opportunity to look back. One thing that has struck me is how limiting the effect of noise was when trying to take (very early) street shots at ISO 800 in relatively dark conditions. I still used zoom lenses quite a lot until SPNC and am glad to have been educated in the use of a wider angle lens.

This was the start of a jam in a coed black & white scrimmage after the Flood Water vs CVR bout shown in previous shots. Some of the CVR skaters played in both as can be seen here in black. The white jammer was a referee for the first bout. Here we have Sass E McNasty #8, Lil Bird #22 and Cherry Bomb #13 trying to hold up Phil A Ming Dong #333. I'm not sure who the black jammer was this time around.

Naperville, Illinois, USA

The two girls were playing a finger game that involved a lot of gestures and after finishing they could step down one level and do it all over again. The rollerskater followed by sliding down.
