POD Photo of the Day on Sep 12, 2011

Selected by IanHylands - If I made a checklist for my students when we shoot bmx in the park I could go down the list and tick off everything on this shot. The only thing personally that's missing is I'd like to see the coping or the edge of the bowl so I knew how high he was. Love the action, composition, lighting, post, timing, and trick...

carter-hill (Sep 9, 2011 at 22:09)

looks like it should be a poster

borocks (Sep 12, 2011 at 0:09)

pretty awesome graffiti

supafli (Sep 12, 2011 at 0:19)

the colours and perspective are a total mind trip well done pod for sure

nouser (Sep 12, 2011 at 4:09)

dirty angle

nouser (Sep 12, 2011 at 4:29)

would you look at that! just look at it!

CdnFreerider (Sep 12, 2011 at 5:09)

Carter-hill gave me an idea. It would be cool if they had an option to order a poster of the pod. They could sell them for like 5 bucks or something. It would be another way to keep pinkbike running and the riders / viewers happy.

GunnarGunnarGunnar (Sep 12, 2011 at 8:11)

Fiiiiinally a bmx pod

StefanGlander (Sep 12, 2011 at 10:07)

aflo661 (Sep 12, 2011 at 10:45)

Wow nice colours. And to canadian free rider, if you want prints, contact the artist through pinkbike. Im sure they would love to hear that somebody wants prints.

nouser (Sep 12, 2011 at 10:56)

this is definitely one of my favorite pods in a while, keep them coming

bike-fixer (Sep 12, 2011 at 12:01)

Don't normally comment on pods but holy shit that's a beautiful thing.

nouser (Sep 12, 2011 at 6:41)

The white wall tires make it several times more awesome.

GravityFighting (Sep 12, 2011 at 19:36)

I love everything in this shot, it's just incredible. The colours of the bmx, the old school style tyres, the lighting and the crowd just bring this together so well, BEST POD IN A LONG TIME!

ItaniConnor (Sep 12, 2011 at 7:33)

FINALLY A *BMX* POD!

The-Banders (Sep 12, 2011 at 16:14)

This is an awesome shot. The color or the bike stands out in this picture, I know nothing about photography but I know what I like and that's color. Awesome pod.

dvbwn (Sep 12, 2011 at 0:07)

Great colors in this pic! I'm lovin the pedals

thebean (Sep 12, 2011 at 0:25)

beautiful, those colors make the shot 10 fold better! still would be unreal without the colors, good work

cutthathair (Sep 12, 2011 at 3:27)

great pic with a old skool feel to it. and as with the masses, great job on the colours, looks almost cross processed.

vt6spd (Sep 12, 2011 at 3:59)

Its like a flash back to 1991...nice.

Winnipeg2010 (Sep 12, 2011 at 6:10)

Probably the best POD i've seen in a LOOOONNNNNGGG time!

wakebikesnow (Sep 12, 2011 at 12:05)

Hendri (Sep 12, 2011 at 2:02)

hardy1986 (Sep 12, 2011 at 5:40)

KonaShred45 (Sep 12, 2011 at 14:50)

Durty.

bikerider77 (Sep 12, 2011 at 21:44)

sickk!

dirtmulisha101 (Sep 12, 2011 at 22:34)

sick for suree...

BrodieBro (Aug 5, 2012 at 20:38)

what brand is that bike

Below threshold threads are hidden

bmxerricta (Sep 12, 2011 at 16:21)

is that a bmx wow i didnt know pinkbike new that they bmx even existed

sanguinetti-94 (Sep 12, 2011 at 4:15)

Not a big fan

PoMiT (Sep 12, 2011 at 6:28)

So what? its a great shot.

sanguinetti-94 (Sep 12, 2011 at 9:24)

it's an opinion chill

bike-fixer (Sep 12, 2011 at 12:02)

i dont understand why people voicing their opinions get neg props.. kinda retarded if u think about it

sanguinetti-94 (Sep 12, 2011 at 12:04)

shut up wool

pete-moss (Sep 12, 2011 at 12:37)

Cause they don't explain why they don't like it. Saying "this pod sucks" without backing up your opinion just makes you look like a tool.

bike-fixer (Sep 12, 2011 at 14:00)

can't arugue with that one lenny

sanguinetti-94 (Sep 12, 2011 at 14:27)

did i say this pod sucks nope, read up you moron, and i can back up my opinion but i just felt like calling him a wool, got a problem?

cebelar123 (Sep 12, 2011 at 6:55)

Same picture as yesterday only different bike. Really depressing.

bwoodhull (Sep 12, 2011 at 10:49)

Entirely different picture as yesterday. And if not being too into the POD is "really depressing" I'm thinking there probably isn't too many things in your world that aren't depressing.

A+ on a sick BMX shot.

dillyrides (Sep 12, 2011 at 13:46)

someone clearly doesnt know there tricks yesterday was a big whip and today is a turndown air so if your going to criticise atleast get it right

cebelar123 (Sep 12, 2011 at 22:51)

I was tallking about the positions of the camera and not the trick or the sort of the bike.

ambrogino (Oct 22, 2011 at 4:37)

its a massively different position :S

sheiffa (Sep 12, 2011 at 3:30)

angle and trick are indeed awesome, but quality, light, contrast nad colors look awful. Good photo can not lack these four things!

thisiselm (Sep 12, 2011 at 3:40)

i couldn't disagree with you more. i think all of these elements are great in this shot...

sheiffa (Sep 12, 2011 at 6:52) (Below Threshold)

maybe I just don't like overexposed pics with vintage colours, but you can not convince me that quality is great. I can see lot of noise even in small resolution. Still it's an inventive shot with a sick style of Leszczu

andyrrrrr (Sep 12, 2011 at 7:36)

I think this post process was intended to mimic film, and that is why you man see some noisy looking areas. It was taken with a D5000, so I doubt the quality is bad. I personally love it.

bike-fixer (Sep 12, 2011 at 12:03)

there's a hell of alot of colour here, the sun in the pic just makes it look better!!

llarrggee (Sep 12, 2011 at 3:44)

I don't like it sorry. Just my opinion.
