Thanx Everyone ! Me and my camerea got lucky on this shot ! this was the first try of the day to shoot some whips. I setup too close, brad came in hot whipping huge ! I pulled the cam away as fast as I could while still shooting. His back tire missed the lens by 1 inch ! I was very happy I caught an image from that moment of panic. As far as the editing goes it was a though decision, there was alot of dust, cloud haze, sun glare, not the perfect shot. So by turning down the blues it eliminated those problems and made the action of this picture stand out alot more, and isnt that what counts ! I used an 8mm Fisheye

Its a amazing shot no matter how lucky mate.You were lucky to walk away without a rear mech lodged in your forehead.....very much POD worthy...

meta-and-two-veg (Oct 18, 2011 at 3:52)

I'm so confused by this pic, it's crap but yet good. It's got a lomography feel to it, not technically a very good photo, but it really captures the moment. I like it.

cypher74 (Oct 18, 2011 at 9:49)

deliberate or accidental?

Either way is it just me or have the sky and some of colours been photo shopped into oblivion, would like to see the raw photo as i think its been spoilt.

POD? not for me i'm afraid
