    Great shot! bowdown.gif

    I'm an avid cyclist and one way of dealing with a dog which is chasing you when you're cycling is to bawl at the dog:

    "Will you GET OFF THE BLOODY COUCH YOU BAD BAD BAD DOG!"

    the confused dog halts in its tracks and does a second take, giving you ample opportunity to escape!

    the strange thing is that is seems to work quite well!

    Now that's funny stuff! I'll have to try that..

    On the image. I had a hard time seeing it. And don't get a feel that it's a dog. I just expect that it is. If that makes sense. A thought might be slow shutter combined with a rear curtain flash?

    Great idea!!! Oh, dog??? - I couldn't say that - I actually thought it was a person, but it doesn't really matter, I think :)

    - Just, I personally would like to see a little more of the whoever is there, moving...

    I agree with the above comments, it's a great idea just more detail on what the moving subject is...

    I did post this earlier, so no Don, I will not enter it into the challenge. I was just getting some feedback on it to see where to make improvements. It'll be hard to duplicate it (dog is an unwilling subject) but I'll give it a go. Thanks for the tips I'll see what I can do to freeze the subject a little more (he's a quick little bugger). To Will. I too like the bikes and this dog has to be one of the best Mtn bike dogs I've ever ridden with. If you can catch him in the twisty single-track your movin'.

    Great idea and strong on theme, but I agree, the viewer needs to see more of an identifiable subject. Good Luck on the reshoot!
