 I was just snapping some photos in my Sister-in-laws backyard with my new Nikon D70 and discovered later that I had captured the point at which Shilo decided it was time to give chase...

I wasn't expecting a stop-action situation, so I wasn't exactly prepared for this type of pic, but it still captures the concept of Decision.

Good catch of a candid shot. Posing this shot would be next to impossible.

Nice Catch! I wish we could see the gato's face so both decision processes were in view.

Awwwww. . . ..that's cute. I see that look in my own dog's eyes when he's trying to make friends with a cat. . . slow and steady in hopes not to get his faced bopped by the cat. I think the decision is probably more in the cat's mind, "Do I attack and scratch his eyes out, or just hiss at him and hope he goes away." :) Very cute photo!!!!!

I don't feel that the image conveys instantly recognizable decision. Nice pic.

What a great moment you captured! And a decision on the part of both the dog and the cat.

Very reliant on the title....not an obvious decision within the pic. Cool shot regardless and better than most of the entries I've seen.
