Keep Your Eye On The Ball

Ozzie, our chocolate lab, is fixated on tennis balls. His retriever blood really kicks in when it comes to tennis balls! He can play all day. I tire out way before he does. The above image is an "out of frame" digital piece that I did incorporating some of the photos Ozzie that I took at the dog park the same day as the ones below.

"Out-of-frame" is a fun technique to make some cool images from otherwise average shots!

Collage giving feel of movement must have been fun putting together Roger.

Third and fourth photo's speak volumes on their own, crouching to catch with intense concentration, pointer features (in a lab) superb stride with pride!

Thank you Joan! He's my little athlete!

Meanwhile, the dogs at my home will have their "retriever blood" pumping up high when we take the food out... retrieving the food, I mean. If we have to play throw-catch with him, maybe we have to design a toy that looks like food 😂

Hahaha! Exactly! Only one of mine plays ball, but all three know when something is going on with food. They know the sound and hear it no matter where they are.

@rwedegis, can you please bring your dog over here so I can play catch with him? my arms terribly need the work out! hahahahaha

[rwedegis]

Sure he'll play ball with you all day!
