spent an hour at the Dog's beach in Del Mar. I am not a dog's person, but I love Dog's beach - I think this is one of the happiest places on Earth. All these dogs running around, splashing water, playing with each other - you get a very palpable sense of freedom there.

A good "snapshot" idea but needs something else to make it stand out. The pose is also a bit awkward.

Haha excellent. The dog does have that "I'm Free!" look. Great stop action shot for Basic Editing.
