Who else thinks this looks shopped?

I think it is that white line around the rider that makes it look shopped...
but here is the original www.pinkbike.com/photo/7390944

That isn't the same picture. Look at his front hub they are in different spots. Eitherway this convo is dumb. However the bermslider in this picture is steezy as hell

If you look at the album he shopped a new sky in, the new sky is heaps more interesting and probably worked better when turned to B&W. The riding and everything else are original. Cool beans I say.

Nope, sky is original, that's what happens when you enhance details in photoshop. If you look closely you'll find a lot of similarities with the sky on "original" picture provided above (which is btw, not the one used for this edit, as it was taken from a slightly different spot)/

the sky's the orignial. the blue channel has been darkened in the black and white conversion to give them sky more contrast in black and white, however this causes the outline (along with keen sharpening) and makes things like the mountains in the background merge into the sky due to the blue UV haze.

Completely different shots guys
I had been shooting in JPG, one shot is in the "vivid" color mode with Auto WB (A+1, G-1)
This shot on the other hand was shot in Monotone with a red filter-in camera, I set the WB to 2200K so the red filter would have a more pronounced and unrealistic effect than if the WB was at 5400K as it would be for normal daylight.
With the exception of dodging the highlights on the landing and the midtones on his face, as well as minor levels adjustments, this shot saw no "photoshopping" in the sense that it's fake.

Why do you all use photoshop as a dirty word? If you do digital photography at any level, you use photoshop on a daily basis. So many blind accusations of a shot being fake from people who know little about photography or photoshop. /end rant. Cheetaprowlerdh, awesome shot! I am not usually a big fan of the dj PODs but this one is amazing!!!

i think the black and white make it looks better, mostly because of the clouds in the backround. plus, such a nice angle for the shot!

the original colors were probably not too amazing. the black and white makes it very moody and different.
i love how he is a silhouette against the clouds.

This pic has a feel to it that once you're done with your session you get the hell out of there asap........I like it.
@Taane - moody is a great way to describe it.

Great Pod. The white halo is probably just an after effect from the B&W conversion, maybe a little too much sharpening but not a photo manip at all. Amazing shot!

Thanks
Good call on the white halo, it's definitely from shooting it in B&W. The camera only processed down to a certain pixel level.
Once I get a version of Photoshop that supports raw I will try this technique on that file, luckily I shot in RAW+JPG, and this is the JPG. Hopefully doing it to the raw will give cleaner results

This photo had literally zero sharpening applied. The halo around everything is from how the camera processed the B&W with a red filter on a 2200K WB.

...don't think it had much to do with in camera b/w processing since someone posted the colour version. Regardless of the reason, (chromatic aberration, in-camera sharpening, etc.) it looks terrible.

Having actually taken and edited the two separate pictures, I know as a fact that the halos are from the in-camera processing.
Default JPG sharpening applied in-camera, zero sharpening in post. No CA from the lens on the color shot, which was taken in brighter sunlight and therefore more prone to CA from hot highlights, and no CA from the lens in the RAW of this shot.
But it's good to know it looks terrible in your eyes, all art is subjective.
I love it, and that's why I posted it.
I didn't choose it for POD

First "This photo had literally zero sharpening applied" and then "Default JPG sharpening applied in-camera".
Again, regardless of the reason, I'm pretty sure gigantic halos around your subjects are less than ideal. Glad you like your photo.
