POD Photo of the Day on Jul 14, 2011

Selected by Ian Hylands - Wow, loving the mood and drama of this shot. We've seen a few roost shots before, but they're usually wet mud or dry and dusty. This one really brings to mind the east coast loam that is flying up off of this tire... Great light as well, not overly lit, just enough to clearly see what is going on. The way it really is...

Jack1201 (Jul 14, 2011 at 5:46)

it would be better if you could see the whole rider but still a sick shot!

great dynamic in this photo... one photo that is not so easy to realize, more than this in a world cup race where riders are really fast... perfect focus that give the idea of the rider escaping fast from that point, the light on the dirt that is exploding, I think filtered between the trees, is awesome ... great job!!!

fluider (Jul 14, 2011 at 0:21)

This is uber-shot! Amazing!
Is it possible to provide this picture in a higher widescreen resolution?

IanHylands (Jul 14, 2011 at 1:00)

Ask MTBcut if he can do that...

HaloTornado (Jul 14, 2011 at 5:37)

yeah I would be interested in higher resolution picture, depends if/how much MTBcut wants for it...

Tearing mother nature a new one... love it.

SarahStuttard (Jul 14, 2011 at 9:29)

I flinched when i saw this photo, because i thought i was getting dirt in my eyes.

davidstuartkelly (Jul 8, 2011 at 3:26)

Bloody great shot...POD!!!!!!

nouser (Jul 14, 2011 at 3:27)

nouser (Jul 14, 2011 at 0:19)

funkymonkey144 (Jul 14, 2011 at 4:19)

Definately POD worthy!

fraserbritton (Jul 14, 2011 at 9:31)

Screw my new 3 thousand dollar TV that doesn't do anything, this is way better!!!

Toph69 (Jul 14, 2011 at 11:00)

I think seeing the whole rider would actually take away from the point of the picture, this is a great POD!

logandiamond (Jul 14, 2011 at 12:34)

The thumbnail looks alot like a video more than a picture.

Gravityassisted (Jul 14, 2011 at 13:33)

POD..... And seconds later the dirt ricochets off the camera man like pebble dash lol

stab (Jul 14, 2011 at 18:59)

They should have wited till a later on that day when the mud would have been darker.

uberbecks (Jul 8, 2011 at 4:23)
