 That Berrecloth picture takes it for me. The tones of the green and overall composition just seems spot on.

 Darren Berrecloth is a legend, what is he like 40' in the air for that photo? Great photo.

 Pinkbike feet or real feet? I'd say real feet. Absolute LEGEND.

 It also looks like a giant forest Kraken is trying to eat him. So that's cool too.

 I like No. 3 and 5.

No. 3 because it's unique and kind of unsettling in a way.

No. 5 is just a nice photo.

But was it February or March that already had the photos that would be photos of the year?

 @shred-all-day: Yeah, I know. But maybe last month or a couple months back, they had some really good photos for Photo of the Month that I and others claimed would be Photo of the Year.

Looks like it was last month: www.pinkbike.com/news/photo-of-the-month-march-2016.html

 Since when are video stills photos? It's a hell of a lot easier to pick the best fame from a video than it is to capture a moment in time on a single shot. Sure some might shoot high speed shutter but picking from a full real shouldn't get top photo credits.

 @mountaintrials003: @teschenbrenner if yah talking bout number 1 its not a video still, it was shot on a 5d!

 #3 all the way. If I needed to convince someone that enduro racing is not a walk in the park I'd show them this photo. Good photography IMHO is not only composition and colours, it's about the feeling one gets while looking at it and the story behind. Who is the rider? Where is this place? Did she finish the race and what position?

Great image.
