William, my favorite saying is "damn girl" -- thanks for making me smile and making my day.

Damn girl, those are all great shots.

Thank you Randy. The person who was in charge of the event said to me after going thru all the images -- "they really show what a great event it was"... which made me very proud and happy. Thank you for your comment.

Great series of photos. They give an excellent overview of what must have occurred at the event. Thanks for sharing them.

[KimC]

For you Izzie, anything. I'll post a few more of "your favorite".

Here's a few more for Izzie... and whomever else enjoys them :-)

This team came in 2nd place in the overall competition.

#9 He had swimmies on as a joke for the water obstacle. He was a real character, yet a very dedicated handler.

Kim,

Thank you for the beautiful photographs. It's hard for me to pick a favorite.

[Mike Buckley]

It's interesting that you initially chose not to display image #9, as that one is my favorite by far. It shows drama, action, energy and obvious engagement by both the dog and handler.

[KimC]

What a nice comment - thank you Paul.

Kim,

[KimC]

It's one of my favorites as well Mike; however, I didn't think members would enjoy that one, with the exception of Izzie ;-) I guess I was wrong.

All so beautiful...full of action and fun. I love all of them...it is nice to have fun sometimes -- the dog loves fun too...I have to go back again and again to this posts as I can not get enough of the actions. Love them all. Does this unit knows you are posting their shots here? Just curious...

Managing an occasional catch up at the moment Kim but I'm glad I didn't miss these. Wonderful record of what looks to have been a great day. Apart from handling the harsh light, you've managed to include a dynamic element in just about all of them, whether it's movement or sheer anticipation. Not a static shot amongst them. Lovely stuff

My wife is very active in dog sports. She just informed me that a K9 competition is being held here in October. Can't wait.

Thanks Izzie. As long as people are not identified they are ok with posting.

Thanks John. One thing I forgot to mention was... I had to get past ALL the people in the audience with HUGE lens and gear hanging everywhere. I actually had to remove them from my brain and just go after the shots I was looking for, and knew I could get. Glad you enjoyed them.
