Rocky: Completely agree with you.

"I really wanted a POD of Semenuk after the contest this weekend.... "

I'm sure that in a few days there would've been more than enough shots of Semenuk by other photographers that were worthy of POD from this contest, and quite possibly almost the same shot that you have here. In fact, there probably are already now.

I love your photography Ian, but it would be nice to see other's work in these contests. One of your other ones I not only saw on the site, but in a local newspaper ...

 This is an extremely old pic...

 Yea, no hat

 Yep.

 I don't know man, when we went there is was unbelievably buff compared to back in winter.

 Backflips! Marcus was trying fronty's though ...

 I changed it before Anthony commented.

 Thanks marcus. I concur.

 I shoot a Nikon D90 and I've got an extra flash on the rider, I think it's an sb-600. But this is sorta proving how shooting at sunset gets the best lighting heh. Thanks for the comments!

 Thanks a lot! I was really happy with how they turned out. It was so unexpected for spontaneous photos and kinda iffy lighting.

 Yeah, and he got right up and tried it again with two broken spokes. Landed it too.

 walrus.

 Thanks, Sorbet

 Thanks Baldo. I'm sooo stoked on how this one turned out.. I think it's my favorite shot of the bunch, though that flat three and the wall ones come pretty close

 LOL, I knew you'd say that

 Ah, ok. That's a pretty nice lens.

 Yeah, Steve lives to ride another day.

 Thanks man!

 very much thanks.

 somebody's jealous...

 Where the sun meets the moon.

 Sure about that?

 I think there's some rocks in there somewhere too...

 Uh, why?
