  Picture of the Month is an article showcasing the best Pictures of the Day from the month before. We take the most viewed photos from the previous month, and pick our favorites out of the top 10.

I left this month's photos mostly in the order they were in, with the exception of bumping duncanp's second shot down to the honorable mentions. I just didn't feel that it was as strong as the photos in 4th and 5th.

Danny Hart got his mega whip on this afternoon in timed runs. The kid is a showman and fast as hell. He has a big future ahead of him
  1. Danny Hart got his mega whip on this afternoon... by Fraser Britton - 45,923 views

bigquotesThis is a race shot like any other. Danny was getting crazy sideways over the 2 finishing straight jumps every run, but this was probably the biggest whip of the week. Pair this up with his epic run later that week, and a legend is being born. - Fraser Britton

 Haha, just because someone isn't wearing a full face helmet and rocking out triple clamp forks to any little pinkbike grom they must be an xc rider.

 I was shooting with the SPS guys (shameless photo plug) about an hour before, as you can see from the photo timestamp. Ruari rocked up midway through a xc ride to say hello. When you only have one bike i guess it has to be your XC and DH bike...

 That photo is not from his finals run. I think that's why a lot of people are all hyped about it.

 ya but its the exact same whip as the competition one and its off the same jump... the only thing different is that theres no mud.

 The mud is what made that whip, and his whole run for that matter, so legendary.

 I don't see why "Matt Jones Identiti rider doing a Yannick-style 3..." is an honourable mention when it beat the 2 above it fair and square on view count. Views is views. That's my view anyway.

flag i-eat-dirt (Oct 10, 2011 at 8:31)
 Maybe add one of two pics that aren't pods. Since the best pics make pod, all of these were pods, that would be pretty lame.
  • + 2
flag IanHylands Mod Plus (Oct 10, 2011 at 11:15)
 Yes, but we choose from the most viewed photos of the month, and there aren't any photos that make the list that haven't been POD's... So while POD isn't a prerequisite for POM, it pretty much works out that way.

 yea im not complaining just saying it would be cool if there was some way of getting pics that arent POD, but still cheers for doing this Smile
