Vlad-Bakumenko (Jan 20, 2020 at 10:22)

ohh, thanks man!

It's a great shot Vlad-Bakumenko: light, composition, action's surroundings. While it's not mountain riding, it reminds us we still can have tons of fun in urban environnement. Cheers !

Vlad-Bakumenko (Feb 13, 2020 at 10:42)

Thank you, glad that contributed to such emotions!

yeah, I totally cannot catch the logic of people who haven't voted for this. this shot is one of the most unique mtb photos in years. the idea, the composition, perfect light, and the original location.

Vlad-Bakumenko (Feb 11, 2020 at 12:02)

@krin-nsk: видимо решающим стало предпочтение по итогу классики, лес, канада, велосипед, классический мтб...)

I saved it to my laptop

@Vlad-Bakumenko: Awesome depth to the photo considering it's only at f/4. Also surprised the rider isn't blurry with that shutter speed. It's excellently done.
