    Awkward dog picture...

    I admit that one of my guilty pleasures is throwing a ball for my dog and seeing what kind of mid-action goofy poses I can capture. This has to be my best so far

    The dog has one of his friends with a camera shooting pix of you as you try to invent new goofy ways to throw a ball for your dog ...

    This is a fun image ...

    Trade secret: throw it on the roof of your house. Once your dog figures out that it will come down at some unknown point, you'll have tons of photo-ops LOL

    Actually, be careful, because both of his tennis balls are now stuck on the roof behind the chimney and I'm the one that needs to get the ladder out

    Nothings better than tossing the ball a bit too far and having it go over the peak to the other side while my Lab plops her butt down on the ground, ears perked up, with that goofy grin of hers on her face waiting for the expected ball droping over the gutter.

    I have a yellow Lab (duh, I guess you can see her right over there in my avatar...) I throw the ball as far as I can (one of those ball chuckers) and by the time I have the camera to my eye, she's already trotting halfway back to me. Forget my shutter lag, I can't even get the shot framed in time.
    Fuji S5700
    Had to buy a simple bridge camera because the rules state "Lengthy lists of camera gear should be put in your user profile, not in your signature." and I would rather it be in my signature....

    I'm working on a page of photography links. It will be the index of my simple gallery site of my shots. Until it is finished, feel free to check out my gallery here.
