its a brilliant photograph .. and i'm actually in awe .. as ppl who can nail an action shot .. especially of a dog running towards you are like magicians in my book .. i'm not a magician btw . !! .. ;)
many congratulations on the red .. love that this is up there . :)
and ps .. what a beautiful dog .. loving his furry ears .. and of course his gorgeous smiling face . :)
Thanks Roz - and everyone else.
I had been admiring the work of Claudio Piccoli https://www.claudiopiccoli.com/dogphotography , but just couldn't justify the cost of a workshop/training course with him. So I took it as a challenge, that "I can do this" :-D. Believe me, there were MANY, MANY shots that went into the bin. Plus I am lucky that my Girls are well trained and especially Flumi is willing to do stuff over and over :-).
oh sorry i called Flumi a him ..
i checked out claudio piccoli ...stunning images ... what makes them so amazing .. for me .. is the shallow dof ..
anyway .. its like most things ... the more you do .. the better you will get .. especially if you have the desire and passion .. which i feel you have in spades .. i'll be looking forward to seeing more of your dogs doing amazing things in the challenges ..
ps . i visited your portfolio earlier today btw .. after this challenge rolled over .. and i absolutely love your dog photos especially .. another stand out for me was the 'distorted vision of oneself' .. incredible .. you are an amazing photographer .. :)

Sometimes the simple, well-executed photos truly are the best- sharp as a tack motion capture, cute expression, good subject placement, excellent even lighting. Hope this does well.
