Dog in Play

. Tuesday, April 14, 2009

You're probably wondering what the significance of these photos are? I had told my husband that I felt that people looking at my photos probably wonder why I post them on my blog and he told me that people may understand them better if I told the story behind the photos. It may explain the significance as to why I posted them in the first place.

Why these two photos? Well, as a person learning photography, sometimes you see something in a photo that makes you say "wow, cool". Well, I felt this way when I looked at these photos. We were at the mall, a few weeks ago and we saw a few puppies at the pet store inside a glass display.

There were 3 dogs; two were playing and biting one another and the other just standing there watching them. What I like about the photos is that I was able to capture both the crazy movement of the two playing dogs and the stillness of the one lone dog. Typically, the photo of the still dog would be blurry but with these photos, my camera was able to focus really nicely of the still objects and still capture the movement of the dogs rolling around biting one another!

Now do you see why I like these photos? Believe or not but these were taken on "auto mode".


Poor pup, he looks like he is wondering what has got into the other two dogs. I think that labrador is one of those "thinking" types. . .LOL!!
I have a few more photos to upload so be sure to return some time today!!
