Selected by Ian Hylands - Sometimes a rider dead center in the middle of a square image works. There is nothing really right with the composition here, except for the horizontal thirds, and it look a little awkward. That really makes it stand out though... oh, and I like the boats.
lol the guy saying fuck the kkk lives in a mostly white rich neighborhood . why dont you come live here in sac where the black plague is spreading rampent . To make it clear its not the color of their skin that i hate its there bad attitude and lack of respect . i hate all dumb people equally
WTF powerline, why call it "black plague" then if you dont think it's the color of their skin? Your just a white guy who sees black people in one shitty city and overgeneralizes things.
@powerline, black people aren't the problem with Sacramento. It's really just Californians in general.
Bad attitude and lack of respect? Sounds like you're the one with the bad attitude and clearly have no respect for others. You, sir, are probably a redneck and cause far more problems in this country, and world even, than any of these "fat rage gorillas" you so ignorantly bash.
It is people like you that make me ashamed to be an American. Go get your head caught in a combine or something...
powerline....The fact that I live in a "mostly white rich neighborhood" means that I can't say f*ck an organization that promotes hatred of a people based on their skin color? I've been to sacto dude, and I got love from everyone there cause I gave everyone respect and they returned it, as it should be. So I still say, F@CK THE KKK, and F@ck you cause it looks like your a bigot.
Way to drop the ball on that one powerline. I use to live in sac and the last time i checked the only thing that has gotten worst is ignorance in the society there which you have so clearly demonstrated with your narrow minded comment. Its not color thats a problem its peoples mentallity. Be better then that and get involved with the youth in your community if you want to see change. We use to do weekend rides from the ymc down onto the davis cannal trails near by. Don't makes waves but choose to make a change for our youth future.
what will cali be in 100 years . one big over populated getto because all you condescending hippie pussies made it worse by giving handouts and false hopes . thank you for playing
l
Last time I checked, volunteering your time at youth centers and food shelters wasn't a government handout, it's just people having a bit of empathy and compassion towards others. I guess when your in the KKK it's hard to understand that though.
@ bwood So with your logic about respect it only seems fair that disrespect would equal disrespect . I mean what if someone took a shit on your face . Would you respect them ?
lol i am not in the kkk nor do i care for them . you sound like ignorant hippie douche bags . just accept history , stop disrespecting it , and move on . we dont owe them anything anymore and im pretty sure they dont like us talking down to them still . its not our fault they have 10 kids each . they have black pride . we have pussy ass im sorry pride? no wonder they dont respect us . your all as ignorant as the kid who tagged that wall . . i was kinda joking about the black plague but they really do have to many kids its a fact
So lets start paying fair wages to teachers and expand the school budget a bit in poor neighborhoods so that they actually have the time and resources to teach about contraceptives to these people who clearly don't get informed on the issue of teen pregnancy and sexual protection... and stop calling us hippy douche bags, I'm no hippy. Im not even liberal. Im against affirmative action and other biased incentives for minorites. I just hate racisim and lack of knowledge people have on the issue in the US today.
i have a couple black friends lol . people like you are exactly why kids tag kkk on stuff . they know what they are tagging . they just want to piss you off and have a laugh . just stop getting mad and feeding the fire simple
It's funny that you get so mad about things your laking yourself powerline. Like compassion, understanding, and education. I know how youth is impressionable due to that sad fact that i use to be a gang banger over on crestview up until i got my first bike and found something better to do other then further trash what is beautiful about california. California is so awesome cause it's diverse but people like you make it a crappy uneducated place. Next time try to look at as people are trying to educate you by letting you know your personal vendeta on society isn't of the norm. Sad that you choose to degrade yourself with your own ignorance.
lol dont bring your x gang banger guilt talk down bs to me . people just need to find a middle ground . like stop being a dumass and saying "f*ck the kkk " because it indirectly supports them . this whole conversation would have never happend . I mean did you really think i was serious with my first comment? your the narrow minded . If enough people were to forgive and forget the kkk we could move on . i know a few black people who would like to move on . we could call them whatever we want and they could call us whatever they want just like it should be in america . with that said peace out jigaboos
Never once made a comment about the kkk. Glad you took the time to read something though. Lol. Narrow minded is commenting before you properly read something. I did make a comment about ignorance which i could see you could commenly confuse with the kkk.
you really wanna keep this bs going dont you? i was talking about bwood negrodamus . your hella dumb lol . apparently im "narrow minded " because im not like all of you ? total hypocritical bs
This account has one album, and one photo. Photo is a small size. Photo also has heavy pixelation, plus a solid color back round. Camera type: unknown, unknown
This pic has all the tell tale signs of manipulation. I'm sure the tuck is real, but the height may have been exaggerated. Photos with solid color back rounds are super easy to do this with the photoshop patch tool. Only, the tool leaves a slight bit of pixel slop around the edges of the area selected. The blur tool could have cleaned that up. Also, photos that were once a PSD file lose the digital tags that were originally on them. This is the camera type, focal length, etc.
I'm super glad PB looked into this pic before making it POD. But hey, who am I to argue with a guy who really likes boats? Imo, that's also the ugliest tuck I've ever seen. Way over done, and unnecessary. I'm not a fan of the trick to begin with, but some riders just make it look awful!
Okay...so this is in no way photoshoped. I have no idea how to use the program. I'm Daryl's (the rider) girlfriend. My mum got the camera...a canon eos 1000D...so I thought I'd take it up the skatepark one evening to see if I could get a good photo to put on his website/blog. I put it on a automatic sport setting which I have no idea what the exposure is or size of the photo or anything.
He put it on facebook and got quite a few likes so I thought I may aswell put it on here so I made an account especially, hence why I only have one photo. I'm amazed that it got POD, I am a art student but am a complete amature at photography.
If you want to see more photos of Daryl riding to prove its not been edited look at his website: www.darylbrownmtb.co.uk ....trust me when I say this is nothing in Daryls scale of 'Going Big'
P.S from the comments and favs I don't think many people agree with your "way over done and unnecessary" comment
I could care less what the response is.
If it walks like a duck.........
PS, Pinkbike is full of mindless automatons who suck down anything you feed them. You can put a picture of a seat post on the front page and it will have 900 fav's by the end of the day. Then, there's the few of us who pay attention to detail. Just as the guy who added this to the rotation said... The best thing about this picture is the sailboats in the back round.
Seven, sevens the magic number. You know like that old childrens tale from the sea...seven little chipmunks sit'n on a branch eat'n lotsa sunflowers on my uncles ranch. SEVEN not 6, SEVEN!
