Photogallery: Nick Jones 2012
It’s crazy to think that 2012 is already over and we’re already almost a full month into 2013. Maybe it’s just me, but it feels like time keeps going faster and faster by the day. If you were checking out The Union last year, you would have seen a ton of awesome photogalleries that we posted from up and coming photographers all around the world.
One of those photographers was Nick Jones. Since his photogallery dropped, I’ve been seeing his photos popping up all over the place and they’re just getting better and better. It’s almost weird for me to say “up and coming” with Nick since he’s definitely up now days.
The other day Nick hit me up with an idea to do a photogallery featuring one photo from every month of last year that he took. When I took a look at the photos, I knew I couldn’t pass this one up. The photogallery is a real good mix of riding and lifestyle shots that you won’t want to miss. Let’s take a look!

Photogallery: Troy McMurray Benefit
All photos and words by Ted Van Orman
I was introduced to Troy McMurray in 1996 on the cover of RideBMX. For years, I watched as he progressed in the BMX spotlight with raw and unorthodox style. Troy could ride everything and ride it like no one else. Using a short and stout frame to win huge street comps and throw the biggest 180 barspins the dirt circuit had ever seen. Lighting the match on the breakless revolution and transforming modern day street riding as we know it. Troy is a pioneer of FREESTYLE.
Troy has had some bad luck as of late. He has been diagnosed with multiple pulmonary embolisms and has had recurring blood clots throughout his body. He has had two very scary trips to the hospital. He will need further medical assistance into the future. Troy is not one to ask for help, but with his second daughter on the way, his family could really use a boost. He has been an inspiration to many of us in the BMX world and any kind of donation would be greatly appreciated by Troy and his family.

Photogallery: Josh Olszowka
We’ve been getting a ton of real good submissions from photographers from all over the place lately. It’s always rad when we get photos submitted from some of the younger guys who are just starting to pick up a camera. The other day we had a real solid set of photos sent in by Josh Olszowka who is one of those guys. Check out 14 of the shots in this new photogallery!

Every now and then I’ll come across somebody who is super talented, but they don’t really know how to get their name out there or they’re not really the kind of person that’s like “hey, look at me!”. Tim Burkart is one of those guys who I came across when one of his friends dropped a link to his portfolio site to check out. I knew right away I wanted to get ahold of this dude and find out what he’s all abut and do one of these Photos: features so people could see the work he is putting out. Luckily, Tim was up for the interview and he sent through a ton of damn good photos for you guys to check out. Let’s find out more about Tim, then check out this PHOTOGALLERY to see his work!
