I don't know, but maybe if there were no sponsors the venue would not be viable, making it impossible for the photographer to shoot it, thus rendering it impossible for us to appreciate such a photograph.
I realise sponsors are vital so don't get me wrong I'm not complaining, I just slightly spoils a beautiful image which otherwise showcases some phenomenal riding skill and excellent photography.
Not sure how that logo bothers people so badly. I suppose people just enjoy complaining. I think it's awesome companies like Suzuki keep more money in our sport. Think of all of the events that would not be possible without sponsors....
hey downhillnews can you post a link to your edited pic? i dont have photoshop (clone stamp) any more and that suzuki logo is stopping me from making this my wallpaper
Wow stunning shot, I love the jump and rider are separated so cleanly from the background. And the way the foreground is so sharp but the backdrop is so soft and smooth.
