Love the playful pose on this pair, especially the pouncing rear one, good detail extracted from the overcast conditions. Greens look nice and lush.

Ken - good action, well captured. Good dof to get the pouncing one sharp too.

Thanks everbody, getting Wild Dogs running towards you doing something interesting is not exactly easy as it is usually total bedlam and involves lots of movement with the camera, plus endless frustration as to what you just missed.

[Morkel Erasmus]

nice action here Ken!
even with the lush greens, how about "warming up" the wild dogs ever so slightly?
I would also bring up shadow detail on the dogs just a smidge.
did you look at cropping slightly from top and RHS? :t3

Even though these two are playing, they still have a serious, intense look to them. Nice timing to get that one airborne and a good job on getting them both sharp and in focus.
