Ethan Smith is photographed skating on Nov. 29, 2022, at a studio in RIT’s Gannett Hall in Henrietta, N.Y. Smith began skating around three years ago. “I one day just woke up and wanted to learn something new and somehow landed on skating.” Smith skates every day if his body permits. “I skate for…mental health, creativity, the community it brings together, and so much more.”
