Collin Harrington decided to round up the troops and make the trek from Florida to Georgia one afternoon to go ride at the Gravity Research Compound. We were on our way up to Smith Mountain Lake, VA with Collin, Clay, Chris O, Tino Santori and myself. We arrived mid-afternoon and rode until the sun went down, set up some lights and continued into the night.

Feeling the fatigue from the long day of driving and riding, the shore side acted as box seats to the wake rails they had set up. Over it, cold, and ready to chill, Chris O and Clay began to play the guitar as the riders went back and forth for hours on end. The lights were all set up from a previous shoot, so we fired them up and BBQ’d into the night as the boys jammed on the guitar. I snuck up behind them with my trusty 35mm old school camera and lined up Clay’s head right in front of where the light was coming from. It silhouetted them out perfect. I was stoked to see the hard outline of the two figures when reviewing the film.
