 This rottweiler belongs to a neighbor of mine, he's really pretty friendly, but when he runs, he looks mean and ugly. He was catching up to my dog after they had both just gotten out of the river for a swim.

Very nice--I like the fact that he looks pretty scary! Photographically, it would work better without the white thing in the back.

Thanks for all the comments.
No, there wasn't a fence between me and the dog, but he was running past me.
The dog was near the left side of the frame, so I couldn't have centered it.
I couldn't really do much about the background, I was just lucky to have my camera ready when he came charging past.
The subject is dark, because the sky was really bright (cloudy, and approaching sunset), and that's what the camera focused on for light metering.

Really good capture of an action shot. I hope there was a fence between you and the dog! The focus, compostion and color are all great.

Cute doggie but then again im a bit bias. Unfortuantely if the rott was a bit lighter and less over contrast this would have a more impact.

Impressive interpretation of challenge. Strength and power well-represented. I bet you end up with a well-deserved ribbon.
