Luke Nelson at Fernie, BC (yesterday's Pinkbike POD)
Can anyone trump this?

by way of background (the full sequence is on PB), he's launched off the patch behind him, to the right side of the picture, and lands across the gap, on the left side of the picture (he very nearly cased it)
I especially like that he's not all encased in silly Troy Lee Designs MX gear - in that Gore jacket he could be any of us...
sterling lawrence has taken some way better shots imo
This picture could not even be professionally taken - it's the rider's move (both concept and execution) that carries it
+1 [url= http://www.sterlinglorence.com/ ]Sterling Lorence[/url] one of his photo's adorns my fridge.
Tyre logos not aligned with wheel valves.
I've seen about 7 million mtb photos better than that one.
I always liked this one [img]

Ah, good call. It's Dave Watson right? I never noticed before but the road graffiti says "Watson"!
There was a guy at this years rampage doing a pop/boost type jump against the sky backdrop. Did it ever make it on a pic? Looked great on the footage.

I've only seen 3! 😥
That shot 'photographically'* is not that great. The subject is impressive just not been lit at all well and the foreground is too busy also the positioning of the rider within the frame isn't quite right.
*If there is such a word?
That Sterling Lawrence stuff is ok, but a bit repetitive scrolling through his galleries.
& stylised yeah. gd tho

I thought the OP was better than the first dozen photos that SL site threw up, yeah its not technically great, but the subject is pretty AWESOME IHM
I think the chap above needs to look where he's going! 😀

It was a tricky uphill reverse move.
victor lucas` pics are better than sterlings. i love his stuff. sterling lawrence... yep, lovely name to have at the bottom of yer photos (it looks so cool that name. kinda like ansel adams eh?)but victors pics have more than once left me with glazed eyes/trying to correct my breathing pattern/grin.
diffrent league.
the thread title is fair enough but folk are posting pics with great scenery and amazing tricks. it doesnt have to be great scenery/good moves to make the greatest mtb pic ever taken so lets see some more pics!
That was in NZ

sorry, can't get the pic to work
I've been up there, although it was covered in snow at the time and I had a snowboard strapped to my back. Its a long drop down that head wall!
Pic is not that great photographically but its a nice snap of something cool. Some of my inspiration:

Plus the usual suspects, Sterling, Dan B, Sven, Victor etc.
