What I enjoy most on this forum is seeing other's work. I finally figured out how to share an image. Sorry I haven't spent the time to discover how to make it clickable yet. That is next.

If I did everything write, the phot is at:

Charles, it's a super shot, best that's I've seen posted here for a long time. I really would have liked to have taken this myself - lovely use of the slow shutter speed to add motion blur and perfect framing, well done!

Bloody Fantastic! Did you shoot it hand held ? Good timing w/bus in bck ground and the model didn't look your way. Priceless

It was shot handheld. Shot a few frames, then saw bus coming and saw the photo. Luckily that pup is a very stoic fellow, and tolerated my position very well. John, is he still outside Nordstom's? I did stuff a few bills in his cup, which his owner immediately retrieved.

Thanks for the comments. Charles

charles. i see him (assuming the sex) outside "pacific place" (half a block from nordstroms) these days. the owner tends to back away from him, so to a passerby he can come across as being alone. and he is rarely distracted from his work. either well trained or very bored. come to think of it i have never seen him act like a dog.
