I LOVE both, however TWO is better, better composition, and some eyes visible. With that said however I will give you some feedback I got on another forum once. This looks like two pictures out a great series, or a great idea/concept, but neither one is 'it' yet. Assuming you have the opportunity to do this again, and she loves the hoseplay, I would burn some serious amount of shots on this, and get the one picture that is 'it'. If you decide not to do so, these are still FANTASTIC, they tell a story.

XO,

Thanks a lot XO. I am drawn to the second one too because it looks like she is winking : I like that it tells a story.


It's hard taking these since I have the hose in one hand and the camera in the other. I sort of prefocus, get as much DOF as I can and still have a high enough shutter speed to get the action - and go! The lens always gets wet along the way, but not as much as the dog

In all honesty, I like this concept so much, I would pursuit it with an additional handler (the person holding the hose/interacting with dog) so you can shoot to your hearts content.

Sounds like a plan and Shiloh is thrilled Have to start shooting as soon as hubby comes back from Bonneville (Speed Week).

Here is a "dry" version of Shiloh (not my "dry" entry)
