and so what? The shot itself is wicked, sometimes pics become PODs after some period of time, as the pic above and is this photo worse than others? I don't think so.

i will deffinutly get down propped for this but i dont care. its a great photo but it does really look photoshopped. if you look at the back of the frame theres branches going through it where the wheel is instead of over the frame and he has a thin black outline from where the rider was moved into the pic.

flag minimcginni (Apr 19, 2008 at 22:24)
why the hell would you ever think that this is photoshopped? even if it was, there is WAY too much shadow detail that you can never recreate in a computer program! and that black outline? also shadow! its called good lighting! AMAZING POD by the way...

nicely done but i notice that lately only "produced" pictures got the pod. where is the originality, the spontaneity, the "freeriding"? respect for all those riders and photographers but today's pods got to have flashes, directors and 35 "takes" until the perfect photo? is this an industry?
peace.
