"\"&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jonas Michilot is a creative dude. I imagine if he was born in a different time, or place he&amp;#8217;d be a full-time artist of some sort. But, he was born in Minnesota in the late-eighties and took to snowboarding early on, so, that&amp;#8217;s what he does.&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n&lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Some day, something else. &lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Maybe photography? He&amp;#8217;s got an eye for it. And a love. He carries cameras with him everywhere he goes. He&amp;#8217;s always looking for a photo. Here&amp;#8217;s some he saw.&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n&lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=\\\"\\/files\\/2009\\/04\\/30\\/img157.jpg\\\"&gt;&lt;img class=\\\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1000090888\\\" title=\\\"img157\\\" src=\\\"\\/files\\/2009\\/04\\/30\\/img157.jpg\\\" alt=\\\"\\\" width=\\\"500\\\" height=\\\"608\\\" \\/&gt;&lt;\\/a&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Name: Jonas Michilot&lt;br \\/&gt;\\nAge: 20&lt;br \\/&gt;\\nHometown: Bloomington, MN&lt;br \\/&gt;\\nSponsors: Academy, Vans, Airblaster, Cal Surf&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n&lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n&lt;strong&gt;When did you start shooting photos?&lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#8217;ve always liked taking pictures, but I started collecting cameras, and shooting more about 2 years ago.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What kinds of cameras do you use? &lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;Mostly old film cameras, polaroids, and medium format stuff. Anything that I can get my hands on. No memory cards please.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Do you have any formal training in photography? &lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;No, I had a photo class in high school, but I&amp;#8217;ve just been trying to teach myself.. i have lots to learn still.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why do you shoot photos? &lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;Just for fun. I don&amp;#8217;t think I would really be into it as much if I used digital stuff, because half the fun for me, is the process of getting the film developed and scanned in. It&amp;#8217;s always a little different than you visualize it, and there&amp;#8217;s so many different types of film to experiment with.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=\\\"\\/files\\/2009\\/04\\/30\\/img156.jpg\\\"&gt;&lt;img class=\\\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1000090889\\\" title=\\\"img156\\\" src=\\\"\\/files\\/2009\\/04\\/30\\/img156.jpg\\\" alt=\\\"\\\" width=\\\"500\\\" height=\\\"608\\\" \\/&gt;&lt;\\/a&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What other creative outlets do you have? &lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;Singing in the opera, gymnastics, and football&amp;#8230; i wish&amp;#8230; but I do like drawing, juggling a soccerball with a big group of friends, sidewalk chalk, and just being outside.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; A lot of snowboarders are also artists of some sort, whether it&amp;#8217;s drawing, painting, photography,\\u00a0 or music. Why do you think so many snowboarders are such creative heads? Do you see a connection between snowboarding and art?&lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;Yeah, why not.. I feel like people who snowboard are a little different, and kind of have to be creative. It&amp;#8217;s not your ordinary thing to be into. So there&amp;#8217;s definitely a link between the two, you just have to find your jam.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=\\\"\\/files\\/2009\\/04\\/30\\/img332.jpg\\\"&gt;&lt;img class=\\\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1000090890\\\" title=\\\"img332\\\" src=\\\"\\/files\\/2009\\/04\\/30\\/img332.jpg\\\" alt=\\\"\\\" width=\\\"500\\\" height=\\\"603\\\" \\/&gt;&lt;\\/a&gt;&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br \\/&gt;\\nWhich photographers do you admire? &lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;I was always into mark kohlman. Nick (dirks) is really into taking photos too, and he can snap a cool photo if you ask me. Liam of course, and anyone who busts out a film camera once in a while.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Finish this sentence:&lt;\\/strong&gt; A photo is&amp;#8230;&amp;#8230;. hard to make look as good as the real deal, but sometimes, you get some cool surprises.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-1000090887 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'&gt;&lt;figure class='gallery-item'&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t&lt;div class='gallery-icon portrait'&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t&lt;a href='http:\\/\\/snowboarding.transworld.net\\/uncategorized\\/behind-the-lens-jonas-michilot\\/attachment\\/img157\\/'&gt;&lt;img width=\\\"96\\\" height=\\\"117\\\" src=\\\"http:\\/\\/snowboarding.transworld.net\\/wp-content\\/blogs.dir\\/442\\/files\\/2009\\/04\\/30\\/img157.jpg\\\" class=\\\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\\\" alt=\\\"img157\\\" \\/&gt;&lt;\\/a&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t&lt;\\/div&gt;&lt;\\/figure&gt;&lt;figure class='gallery-item'&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t&lt;div class='gallery-icon portrait'&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t&lt;a href='http:\\/\\/snowboarding.transworld.net\\/uncategorized\\/behind-the-lens-jonas-michilot\\/attachment\\/img156\\/'&gt;&lt;img width=\\\"96\\\" height=\\\"117\\\" src=\\\"http:\\/\\/snowboarding.transworld.net\\/wp-content\\/blogs.dir\\/442\\/files\\/2009\\/04\\/30\\/img156.jpg\\\" class=\\\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\\\" alt=\\\"img156\\\" \\/&gt;&lt;\\/a&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t&lt;\\/div&gt;&lt;\\/figure&gt;&lt;figure class='gallery-item'&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t&lt;div class='gallery-icon portrait'&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t&lt;a href='http:\\/\\/snowboarding.transworld.net\\/uncategorized\\/behind-the-lens-jonas-michilot\\/attachment\\/img332\\/'&gt;&lt;img width=\\\"97\\\" height=\\\"117\\\" src=\\\"http:\\/\\/snowboarding.transworld.net\\/wp-content\\/blogs.dir\\/442\\/files\\/2009\\/04\\/30\\/img332.jpg\\\" class=\\\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\\\" alt=\\\"img332\\\" \\/&gt;&lt;\\/a&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t&lt;\\/div&gt;&lt;\\/figure&gt;&lt;figure class='gallery-item'&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t&lt;div class='gallery-icon portrait'&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t&lt;a href='http:\\/\\/snowboarding.transworld.net\\/uncategorized\\/behind-the-lens-jonas-michilot\\/attachment\\/img1571\\/'&gt;&lt;img width=\\\"96\\\" height=\\\"117\\\" src=\\\"http:\\/\\/snowboarding.transworld.net\\/wp-content\\/blogs.dir\\/442\\/files\\/2009\\/04\\/30\\/img1571.jpg\\\" class=\\\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\\\" alt=\\\"img1571\\\" \\/&gt;&lt;\\/a&gt;\\n\\t\\t\\t&lt;\\/div&gt;&lt;\\/figure&gt;\\n\\t\\t&lt;\\/div&gt;\\n\\n\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
