Early morning in the backyard. Bright morning sun. Camera set on Sport mode and SHQ. Had to focus on the barbecue grill to set autofocus, and then toss the frisbee while holding the button halfway down, and hope the frisbee and the wonder dog were at the same distance when shot was taken. Very pleased with this attempt.

You captured the action nicely, but the background is a bit distracting. Some judicious cropping could eliminate the distraction and focus the viewer's attention on the subject.

MUST... KILL... FRISBEE!! CUJO playing frisbee! Excellent action shot and nice dog. You might have considered a better crop to put more emphasis on the dog and frisbee.

Tossed around, blown around, and quite often chewed on...

Life is like a Frisbee?!? I think that's the stretchiest analogy I've come across for life yet. That's worse than a box of chocolates. The photo is pretty cluttered, there's too much background that distracts from the subject. 4

Great shapshot of the dog. The neighbors yard is a bit distracting. Next time consider getting closer -- or cropping off the unwanted background. Lovely dog!

great capture :) Nice timing on this one - I've never seen a shot of a dogs face like that in this situation-very cool.
