Mrs Bertie on the move...
Lens: Takumar 200 f4 Camera: KX Photo Location: Donegal Ireland 
Posted By: captainbert, 02-04-2012, 05:51 PM

Took this last summer and tis probably my only decent action shot and twas with a manual focusing lens. Ive never had much success with dogs on the move even with autofocus lenses and this day there were needless to say many many out of focus shots.

Garbhan, this is a wonderful capture of what appears to me as a spaniel. Looks like she went for a bit of a swim, the photo made me smile, so you know it must be a good one. thanks for sharing my friend.
