This is one of the best PODs I've seen in a while, I mean it just has so much more feel to it and this sense of Aw and badass-ness. Great work for an amazing POD

Great use of the terrain!

Nice colors in the pic. But this is one of those beautiful places where just because you can ride it, doesn't mean you should.

I'd happily have that garden in my backyard, it would do more good than a few tomato's the size of golf balls
thats a pretty legit rock garden

Nice picture but please...Make up different story. I am quite sure that rider is simply cut off from the other picture...Just take a look on shadows of helmet and frame on his shin and right arm. There is no sun in this forest, otherwise wood and stones will be bright(as rider is). Pay attention on proportion in size. That's it...

envy? once again for you, external flashes were used to pop me out, like allready mentioned before, the shadows on my body are caused by the flash from the right, and are shadows of the frame. I uploaded another photo, and in the next days there will follow a few more, nothing is manipulated, I rode this trail, WORD!

My pro retouch friends are laughing at the PShop, I'm kind of gutted but I think they might have a point. Check the shadows on his legs and shoulders and lack of flash on the rocks.
Worth looking a little closer maybe?

that are shadows of the frame caused by the external flashes from the left and right... man, everytime someone has to come, claiming it would be photoshopped...

its like everyone thinks these photos are some kind of riddle that needs to be discovered. and by somehow identifying it as photoshopped gives them a sense of insight or or self accreditation that in a way belittles the photo itself. hey guess what, michaelangelo used artisans to carve most of the statue of david. does it make it any less a piece of art?

tell me how you get this opinion, I explained it often enough, ask every other good photographer, and he will confirm you that this is not shopped

Some photos are blatantly "photoshopped;" cut and past, drawn, manipulated,...whatever.
I'll take his (your) word for this picture. Flash work and postprocessing, that's composing and developing, ...not "photoshopping."
Regardless, it is not like anyone is trying to "fool" us here. This isn't a guy dropping a 10 story building to flat, or gapping the English channel. This picture IS possible and I believe it is real.
Fantastic picture!
Thank you for sharing it.

is it a mark of being clever to analyse wether or not a picture has been photoshopped ????
all great pictures nowadays are post-treated. As no captor in the world can capture complete beauty of lights and shadows...
So why not forgetting about the ability to analyse if there's posttreatment or not.... This drives me crazy each time to read such comments
