ABSTRACT:
A method of photographing a simulated activity includes a stable photographic platform that enables an individual to safely mount an item of equipment or a safety surface adjacent the item of equipment so that a photograph may be taken. The item of equipment may be positioned in concealing relation to a structure that supports the item of equipment or the safety surface. The posing individual or the clothing of the posing individual may also conceal the support structure. Alternatively, the support structure and the safety surface may be unconcealed but disguised as a natural element of a photographed scene, such as a rail in a skateboard park. The result is a photograph of an activity where the individual and the equipment appear to be precariously positioned or even suspended in the air with no apparent support. No part of the equipment or individual is cropped from the photograph.
