VANS 'THE CIRCLE' - INTRODUCING THE NEW PHOTOGRAPHY CATEGORY
Creativity, extended
Photos by Fred Murray
Vans 'The Circle' is back for 2021 and this time round it's even bigger and better. As well as the addition of more shops getting involved there will also be a photography element added to the contest with each of the teams submitting their best photo for consideration. Our guy Fred Murray was given the challenge of shooting a series of images that captures the essence of community within BMX, and also brought in to help judge the photography category. Scroll down to check out what he shot, along with some words from Vans on the new element to 'The Circle'.
"The Circle 2021 is fast approaching, with voting to crown the sickest BMX shop edit of the year opening next week! And because few communities are as tight as the ones that exist within the world of BMX, this year we’ve also launched a new photography category to run alongside the video awards, and to support the full spectrum and spirit of creative expression that thrives in the BMX community. But don't take our word for it. We asked mad-respected BMX photographer and The Circle judge Fred Murray to capture the essence of this super strong community in one single gallery of images. And we think he nailed it..." - Vans
