Dog Photo Competition 2 2013 : Entry Number 169

what a stellar image. the wide frame format is perfect for this dramatic finish-line capture ... the drama in the skies, the shadows in the grass, and the strides captured in the two dogs, are all perfection for this apparently easy finish. VERY nicely done. bravo! ~ illona
