ESPN: The Best Photos in Action Sports

i came home last the other night and opened my email. there was an email in my inbox from the editor of ESPN. yes, ESPN is the biggest sports tv channel and company in the world. anyway, somehow the editor came across my photo in a book that was published in japan. he liked it, and asked me if i can submit it to ESPN for publishing. are you serious?

there is a monthly gallery on ESPN called “Zoom Gallery,” which features the best action sports photos from around the world. lot’s of famous photographers submit photos and they only choose a few. it would be a photographers dream for ESPN to even look at one of their photos. i sent it off, and if they use it, it’s probably going to be the biggest accomplishment of my photography career. wish me luck!
