+ 5

kiponga (Mar 5, 2010 at 12:46)

I am not saying he is using "too much photoshop" I am saying the whole photo was photoshoped. He obviously just cut this image ( www.pinkbike.com/photo/800724 )out and put it onto his background.

IanHylands Mod Plus (Mar 5, 2010 at 23:33)

Actually he's right, I'm not a photographer, I'm a digital artist. I cut out that photo and turned it into this. If anyone needs some photoshop help let me know....

+ 0

Thrillride (Mar 6, 2010 at 8:17)

did you really? Wow....That kinda, I don't know, takes something away from the picture....Hmmm. Maybe you should have a seperate folder, titled "My edits" or photoshopped pics just so were not all stoked on a picture that we believe was actually taken as is. Just my two cents...

See with my first comment all the way at the top? I said "insane doesnt begin to describe this shot" I didnt say "insane doesnt begin to describe this edit".....I'm not trying to dog anyone, I think the edit is awesome so I hope you dont get the wrong idea.

+ 3

IanHylands Mod Plus (Mar 6, 2010 at 8:35)

I hope you didn't actually believe what I said ;-) I don't photoshop anything, except for product and fashion shots and portraits. I do adjust color levels a little to make them better representative of how I remember the light and color to have been, and I'll dust spot the sky cause my sensor usually has a little bit of dust on it.

+ 1

Thrillride (Mar 6, 2010 at 8:37)

dude you totally had me. I was like this guy shouldnt even have got POD if this is an edit, I was all bit lol. I thought, maybe hes jokin but there was no way to tell, I was gonna go comment on another picture and ask if you edited it as well! Right on man thanks for the tease
