Dave takes a lot of action shots of motocross and a lot of sport pictures. he has a style that I really like he likes to take risky photos which kinda give you that weird feeling. People see his photography as astonishing and amazing, tons of people visit his website a day. I can't see to find out what seemed to inspire his passion for photography. but it looks like he has been doing this for a long time and still really enjoys it very much. Dave can see a vision in a lot of things that may be a little risky to take pictures of but i believe that he really loves what he does
