  • 10 5
 Is it possible for you guys saying "not pod hur dur" to elaborate on why you don't think it should be pod? Or link to something you think should be pod? You know, constructive criticism, as opposed to mindlessly saying "not pod hur dur."

 i did not understand that. i think i am speaking for the rest of the pinkbike community for you to please be quiet

 haha please cyriz explain, whats "hur dur"?
  • 5 3
 What's not to understand robbo? It's not really difficult to give constructive criticism. Considering many people have been bringing up the issue of constructive criticism in the past I'm pretty sure you don't speak for the "community." He's just asking for people to give reasoning like triptex below did... Not really asking much.

 No robbo, I really don't think you're speaking for the rest of the pinkbike community considering MANY members have said the same things I have said. Get off your high horse sport.

 wow POD is becoming increasingly negative - props to the photographer and rider for what i think is a decent picture.
  • 9 6
 great composition. the lighting is really solid and obviously the rider knows whats hes doing or you'd just have an awesome photo of a rock

 Ok you can clearly see his back wheel on the rock and there seems to be a bit of pressure, Its not photoshoped just a good lens

 how is the fella not on his arse? the angle he seems to have come over the (probably) wet rock seems like he would just wash out straight away.

 I think thats lars Sternberg he's wicked fast and he has a powerful almost out of control style but still completely under control if that makes sense haha. Sick shot!!!!!

It's pretty obvious you don't really know anything about photography or Photoshop Americanahstan. He used flashes to make the colors pop out & add contrast. It's such a bummer when a technically awesome photo gets called out as being overly manipulated. I guess that's a product of the times: if it's good it must be fake, right?

It's always a great compliment to the lighting when a photo looks 'cut and pasted', so thanks!

 You guys are idiots, I agree with Americanhastan, this photo is obviously fake, the colors look good and the picture is gooder, and the rider is goodest, leading me to believe that its all a conspiracy man. Its the government man.

Wake up Americanahstan, just because you took photography 101 at your local community college doesnt mean you know jack about photos Wink

 what's a bike? is that one of those things you can only photoshop into a picture?

 what exactly are you implying is 'photoshopped'? What does "original graphics and photos" mean? What are you even talking about?
  • 1 0
 I really do not think the people critizing this picture realize that YOU (Brad) are the photographer. What the hell is wrong with these people??

To Americanahstan - The man is a wizzard behind the lens, and if you browse his albums, you'll see just that. I don't want to get into a flame war, as it is pointless. Just think before you make dumb, off the wall comments.

 You said his photos are unauthentic. I'll call that out any day of the week.

 Mitch, that's cool. Ever wonder how photos get digitized, re-sized and placed on the web? Yeah, Photoshop. I guess I choose to dance with the devil...

 yeah but thats just transfering and resizing not claiming somethings real when its not idk i myself like flim just because u cant cheat like u take a good picture not edit one idk i just hate the surreal looking pictures that are claiming they are photography no there art but not photography but hey w/e i like classic photography like ansel adams
