wiked pic m8 props ha. shud be POD. not enough good dh pics as POD these days.
Bbakus, the fronts a little blury because the photographer wanted more the rider to be sharp over the front end ? Hard to get the entire rider clear when you only have one chance to do the shot. Especially if your using an SLR
^^^Luigi... what are you even talking about? he's using an DSLR for a fact. And since he is, the rider should have been sharper. He was shooting in what looks to be a low light situation, so to get rid of the slight blur he should've dropped the f stop lower, used a higher ISO speed, of a slightly faster shutter speed. Maybe you should think before you speak next time.
Anyways... dope picture for sure. props to the photog!

Great photo. Im not to sure about the fisheye distortion though.... Kinda threw this photo out of focus...
The fisheye is awesome as always, but perhaps what Edwards is trying to say is maybe not over-use it. I'd hate to see you guys get all bored and jaded about fisheye. Then pinkbike would have to change its name to 'Pinkeye'
pinkeye hahahaha. I think the use of the fisheye in this photo was well done and not too over used. This photo is cool I like it.
contrats on the maturity..sorry for stating my opinion, i thought this was wat this site was for... its 'pin' dicks like u tht spoil it.
there's alot of reasons why a pic gets POD. the angle of the shot, the colors, the background, ect. everything is scharp except the tire and the fork. everything else is super crisp. the fish eye effect makes the picture look really good. and you also have to look at this in a photographers point of view. to get this close of a shot he had to be pretty close becasue most good fishey lenses dont zoom in very much. so i would defintely say this is POD. just because one object isnt sharp, doesnt mean it doesnt deserve POD.
my buddy's does. its actualy a wide ange lenses. its not a tru fish eye but you still get the fish eye effect and you can zoom something to 35. forgot the specs of it but its a tokina wide angle.
yeah thats called a Wide angle lense, tonika makes a 11-22mm i think. a fisheye is like 10mm or less.
Fisheys lenes can be of various focal lengths, and are not limited to 10mm or under. The fisheye effect depends on a few things - focal length of course, also what format you are shooting - full frame/film - or crop sensor. You'll get two very different effects using an 8mm on a full frame, then using it on say a 40D.... There are fisheye lenses that zoom also check out the Tokina 10-17mm - it's labeled as a fisheye by the manufacturer.
yeah obviously there's gonna be a dif when using a crop sensor and a full frame. you wont get a fisheye look with a 10-17mm with a crop cam.....

Sweet photo... i hate how everyone goes on about it being sharpend and that, what photos arent sharped? its done to give a clearer picture, not to make it out to be something its not.

not that great, i know its kinda the point for it to be shaky, but theres better pics out there for vod
the colours and everything are awsome but is it really pod worthy? its only him turning not even on a berm or anything
the shot is cool. There is no need to do tricks or any stunts to get a great shot. And this is a great one for sure. POD Style!
