POD Photo of the Day on Mar 5, 2011

Selected by Ian Hylands - Pinned, that's all I can say. I like the composition, diagonal lines, foreground, thirds, it all works. And it's a sick shot, did I say that already? I even like the person on the ridge in the background.

( 3 PODs )

looks like he's riding on the moon trying to escape a bunch of angry aliens throwing battle spears at him. no wonder he's so pinned! sure 83% less gravity is fun but alien ambushes are just the worst

Great shot. Definitely POD worthy. Love reading Ian's (or others) insights also. When are they going to add this feature to the VODs!

CanadaDiscGolf (Mar 5, 2011 at 1:22)

I also like Ian's insights, but sometimes I don't like reading them. Sometimes I just like to look at the picture and make my own judgment about them. However, I have noticed a huge decrease in punks saying "Not POD Deserving", which is very nice.

You don't have to read them, and if you do you don't have to agree with them. Please make your own judgement, I insist!

for some reason i feel like there should be tanks behind him with soldiers fighting in the backround...almost looks like a battle field.

beverley55 (Mar 5, 2011 at 8:38)

Looks like he's biking in No man's Land

Great Pic

aflo661 (Mar 5, 2011 at 14:53)

100% cool

duncanp (Feb 12, 2011 at 14:14)

Nice indeed. I like the stark contrast of the poles in black and white however i'm left feeling for a little more light on his face.

manboobs (Mar 5, 2011 at 5:43)

Great pic and makes me feel unworthy when you see someone pinning it through a boulder field clipped up! I'll stick with flats tyvm but huge props to this guy

DNM-Biker (Mar 5, 2011 at 9:31)

Стильно смотрится! Даже слегка апокалиптично!)

gerdmmando (Mar 5, 2011 at 12:54)

i love that, all you who said it looks like he's racing through a martian battleground, i agree, one of the coolest pods i have seen.

ccvl (Feb 12, 2011 at 14:13)

JesseKaplanis (Mar 5, 2011 at 0:04)

Thats a sick shot... like the way the rocks gradually become in focus.. riders shredding

Sponger (Mar 5, 2011 at 8:23)

I think that is my dad marshalling in the back ground

downhillnews (Mar 5, 2011 at 21:45)

Like this shot. A Little underexposed for my taste but its a BW so that helps it.

ralf888 (Mar 13, 2011 at 10:53)

thegofastguy (Mar 5, 2011 at 0:48)

he's to fast to get photographed in color. And definitely deserves POD.

Jayde09 (Mar 5, 2011 at 0:58)

blkmrkt785 (Mar 5, 2011 at 9:30)

Nice style, the Black and White is what makes it what it is.

bike4christ (Mar 5, 2011 at 14:16)
