A Flying Dog

I had seen several photos here lately which were excellent Macro pictures , so was outside experimenting on small buttercup flowers when I noticed my dog, stalking my cat - I didnt have much time to react, but he suddenly took off , and the cat that was taking an interest too in the flowers was supprised to have this creature suddenly bounding towards him at a high speed - Don't worry they are really great friends with each other, so it became a friendly game of tag for the following 5 minutes. Here is that shot - thought I had missed it, but when I downloaded to my computer, was pleasently supprised.

That's a wonderful shot! Excellent choice to shoot from the ground.

Consider cropping those plastic-sheathed guy-wires out of the shot.

Don't you just love it when you can capture animals in action! Alas, guywires, powerlines and such are a part of the landscape these days, especially in urban areas.

Its a bird, Its a plain, . . . . . . . . Its SUPERDOG!!

Thanks for the comments , and feedback on the picture. It is amazing how many objects that you get used to seeing lying around (ie Line sheaths,etc) and it does not really become noticable, until someone mentions it. I just took a walk outside and cannot believe how much man-made stuff is around, and gets taken for granted without a second thought.
