 This is photo of the day for three reasons:
1) Sterling Lorence
2) Andrew Sandro
3) Matt Hunter

If a no name photographer submitted this image featuring two no name mountain bikers wouldn't have a chance at POD.

It's all about connections I guess. Decent photo, I'm not saying it's junk, but POD? Not by a long shot.

 Agree completely with you. SL is a great photographer for sure but almost any decent photographer could have taken this pic without expecting to have it converted into POD.

But then there's the Shandro-Hunter-Lorence combo and voilá... POD

It is all about connections... and the VOD and Movies for Your Mondays too.

´nough said!!!

 Actually, this isn't true for movies for your Mondays. A video of mine got into movies for your Mondays a year or so ago when I only had about 10 followers and had only recently joined pinkbike Confused

As for VOD and POD, I have seen amateurs get it before, however I guess it's rare.

 I thought there had been a lot more variety on the pods lately.

 I disagree, I think it is a frickin' sweet photo. And I suggested a photo from someone who had never had one in the POD thread and it made it a month or two later. Proof that it is possible.

 Doesn't do it for me. Sure, we can all relate to the feeling conveyed by the picture, but it's too plain, the colors are muted, focus isn't great, etc etc

 I guess that's why it's photo of the day and not photo of the year. Definitely a great shot though!

 On the contrary for me - this is exactly what I find exciting and fulfilling about biking. To each their own, though.

 reminds me of two little lambs leaping around in a pasture on a spring morning, just having fun.
