Agility

I took these photos in May 2007 at an outdoor agility trial in Savage, MN. I went to practice shooting movement. But a dog jumping looks like every other dog jumping. I like to find interaction between people and their dogs as well as dogs in action. I take photos (or video) at every dog event I can attend.

Photographing Dogs

You can use a flash to stop the action when using a slow shutter speed in a dark room.





Tech Notes: I focused on the dog and panned up with the dog as he jumped to touch his person's hand. This is three different leaps.
