Retrievers and Ducks

[sgriggs2006]

Hello all!
I have been absent for a little while....but shooting. Just got in from a cold day of shooting retrievers...my first attempt!
Mostly just stood around trying to get a feel for what was going on....
Cheers,
sue.

Very cool shots. Love the water dripping off of that last one.

It's great to see another sport, Sue.
This is really different from the usual run of sticks, balls, or wheels.

I know it's borderline between Nature/Wildlife and Sports.
But if Oil Wrestling is a sport ... this ought to count !

Nice snaps. Good exposure on the black lab as he has good detail in his coat.

Nice shots of a couple great looking working dogs. - TF

The second shot is wonderful! Great dog's-eye vantage point and a nice balance of motion blur and sharpness.

Thanks all! Funny I didn't even think about it NOT being considered a sport! Although, sometimes I wonder who works harder, the dogs doing what is natural or the handlers thinking they are making the dog work...Lol....
cheers,
sue.
