You know, the fact he has even got you guys talking about him before he even shows up just shows he's won this little game he's been playing with you guys. And you fell for it. Hook, line, and sinker.
Il save protour and his replier their comment! 'Another backflip...yawn I could do better at the age of 2, I hope pinkbike get their act together and start putting some decent pics as pod! So go on, start the neg props!' 'And again protour manages to find a flaw in an amazing picture! Pinkbike please just remove him or something?'
Haha, this is actually probably pretty close to what came out of the camera. We are just used to photos that are edited to look amazing. I agree though, it does look a little warm.
There's not much color adjustment involved actually - white balance on "cloudy", a little saturation and that's about it. The light was quite unpleasant to shoot in, especially with backlit angles such as this one.
I already did. I found it only looks better if you do extremely small adjustments, otherwise it looks fake. But it did look a tiny bit better. Not a huge difference though. Made me appreciate this photo more.
Not at where he landed...if he landed any higher up he would have needed to land in the berm completely, which was the issue he had after this anyways.
