    Ken - This one works much better for me. Nice sense of movement, though it looks like he might topple over . Nice intense look on the dog's face and good dof.

    TFS,

    He looks happy to be getting wet.

    Thanks everybody for your comments

    Wid Dogs are a very special subject for me as there is always the possibility of play, you just have to wait rather than leave for a sundowner as everybody else did.

    Ken, one of your best maybe a touch more sharpening on the dog and splashes and a hint more contrast/levels, but thats all I like t a lot!

    Dumay,

    I fear I forgot the final slight round of sharpening I usually apply after conversion to JPEG

    I was going to say I agree with Dumay, but it looks like you do too Ken. Great and unusual shot. Maybe a little clockwise rotation? - very difficult for me to judge that.

    I guess I wish he'd been coming up rather than down, but I'll take this very, very gladly.

    Paul, I'll see if I have any taking off
