One of the obstacles in Agility is a tire that the dogs have to jump through. I thought this was a nice "frame" for the dog, but after the last few challenge results, I am not sure if I actually "get" the challenge titles at all :-(.

This is VERY funny ... I was so disappointed with the voting on my previous image that I almost didn't send this in. I really did not expect this to do well – it is just a picture I took at the Agility trial on Sunday ... so here we are (voting only just started) and it looks like it may become my best entry yet ... go figure … confused (VERY confused), but H A P P Y :-)

I don't want to "jinx" anything, but this is doing SO well for me :-). Thank you all for voting and for your kind comments.
Still very confused why this picture does so well :-) ("so well" is of course relative ... it is doing "so well" for *me* :-))


Wow, wow,wow (excuse the pun ;-))
Can't believe this - 11th place and PB by a looong way :-) Thank you all. I have actually taken your comments and re-worked the image and the new one is looking even better. Tahnk you all ....

Oh yes. Perfect interpretation of this challenge. What a look of intensity, and those little tucked up paws!!!! I might have played a bit more with the lighting.

I have to rate GSP photos high or my Sofia will bite me.... Great shot! A bit more contrast or a levels adjustment would give this more pop. (IMO)
