He's shooting toward the sun, hence the flash...
Why can't you just accept that this is a good photo?!
And so what if a tiny part of it is blurred, its hardly taking anything away from it.

Good pic. Keep it up Smile

I disagree, i think both quality and syle are important. You could have a guy doing a sweet trick but if the quality is really bad, well it's not a great pic. But I don't find anything wrong with this pic, it's really good. Props to both rider and camera person. Great picBig Grin

It is actually. The edges of the rider are blury but the rest of him isn't!
Still, very well done!
  • + 4
flag jameshealey (Jul 6, 2008 at 18:46)
it's not shopped because of the blur. you people don't know shit about photography. the blur is caused because the light of the flash cannot reach around the rider. The flash stops the motion in this picture. to have the rider completely sharp would have required more flashes on different angles, when using a flash the sync speed is only 1/250 on most cameras by the way. so for people saying to use a faster shutter speed, it can't be done unless you have a camera with a faster sync speed.

you people should read a book or something and learn about it before posting stupid comments!!

i doubt its a photoshop, the stick in the bottom right hand corner is lit up by the flash too. the blurring is probably just a funky camera effect due to the light/speed/whatever.
