Dog Photo Competition 5 2012 : Entry Number 406

love this image! wonderful framing and balance, great depth of field, beautiful conversion and light, and of course, an absolutely irresistible subject springing into action. nicely captured and presented. ~ illona

Thank you so much for choosing my photo, Illona! My name is Rike Bayer, I am 20 years old and took this photograph almost four years ago at the Danish coast using a Nikon D200. A few weeks ago I rediscovered it while browsing some old pictures. I like it since it is both static and dynamic at the same time and even though I had not planned capturing this Parson Russell springing into action I think this is what eventually makes this photo so special :-)
