After I laid my eyes on his North Face never stop exploring campaign I knew thats what I wanted to do. Jimmy Chins photo was simple. Of a man in full Mountaineering equipment, belaying a climber on a mountain ascent. Above him you can see the sun flaring into a bright blue sky with a backdrop of limitless mountains poking into the lower frame. It was this image that spoke to me in a way few others had. It ignited a passion in me that made me think that one day, it would be me on top of that mountain taking that shot. The picture brought back my memories of running through the forest, and the play in creeks that I soon began shifting all of my photographic focuses over to extreme sports photography.
