Congrats on your top ten finish.
I'm not sure many people appreciate how hard it is to get a dog this crisp - especially when it is running at you and in mid stride . .
I have taken (literally) countless shots of my dog running and got very few that are worthwhile.
This on the otherhand looks spot on :- ) |

This is a stunning capture, the colours, and clarity are fantastic. Also, you chose (IMO) the most difficult letters of the alphabet for your title. Bravo and congratulations on top ten, Bob. |

This is such a great capture. The stop motion and "energy" are amazing. Well done and congrats on top 10! |

The desat effect is really cool considering the posture of the subject. What a great shot. |

Good capture. I like your post-processing. I'm curious how the original looked. If the grass was green it really would have popped next to the color of the whippet. |

the selective desaturation does emphasize the dog - but i personally think this shot would do better fully in color - it seems more gimmacy here than beneficial. still, it is a very good shot |

Incredible shot. Looks like a greyhound running for lead.
Very well done. |

Had preferred this to be in a black and white rather than partially desat. Beautiful dog. |

The desaturation kind of makes him look demonic, which is not the effect I assume you were going for. |

Ohhh...you took a beautiful image of your baby! I really admire your wonderful DOF, composition, detail and nice editing work..a truly beautiful capture of a beautiful creature. I am now a proud owner of a 2 year old Greyhound. These swift hounds are amazing and gentle. Don't they run fast?! I love your happy dog and image! |

Such amazingly fast little creatures.
I would've preferred the grasses to remain their natural color. |

Lost the last comment. Maintenence mode on the site kicked it.
Love the expression, the isolation of the subject and the sense of movement. I wonder if the grass could have been 'less completely' (can't think of the word) desaturated. |
