POD Photo of the Day on Jan 19, 2015

Selected by Scott Secco - Garrett Grove spends most of the year neck deep in powder shooting the world's best skiers, so it's always a treat to see his unique take on mountain bike culture. I love the fact he mounted a Nikon D4 to the seat post in order to grab this shot... that's a risky move dangling a $6,000 body (plus a $1,300 lens) from a moving bike. Plus there's a trail dog in the shot, how cool is that?

My German Short Hair is now 14 and those old hips have caught up with her. Best riding buddy of all time... always up for a ride, never a mechanical and she cleaned everything... I miss those days. Beautiful shot, thanks...

amarmurthi (Jan 19, 2015 at 18:59)

Agreed Love my German Shorthair. Amazing athletes! Hope mine makes it to 14

shredwhatevs (Jan 19, 2015 at 11:14)

I bet he doesn't care what wheel size he's running after.

rockyflowtbay (Oct 15, 2014 at 18:50)

garrettgrove (Oct 16, 2014 at 10:35)

Yes mounted with a Magic Arm and duct tape.

Caiokv (Jan 19, 2015 at 3:15)

And some balls! No way I'd strap my camera like that... Maybe that's one fo the reasons my photos are not that good by a long shot!

moferenc (Jan 19, 2015 at 0:19)
