Which pic?

[Patti Waddell]

Hello everyone,

Bryce and I were at an agility trial last weekend, and a friend who is a pro photographer took some pictures of my little man. I have NO agility pictures and would like to get a couple... The difficulty is that I can't decide which I like best :-( What makes a good agility picture??

I'm hoping I can impose on you to help me decide which picture (s) :-) to purchase? There are 6 pictures in the first link (Novice Standard 1), and 3 in the second (Novice Standard 2).

If you get a minute and are interested in helping, the link is here:

Hi its always nice to find agility pitcures of your dog, I think you probably are the best to decide which pitcure you like best.

Personally i like pitcure with speed and also pitcure where you could see the cooperation between owner and dog as well as pitcures where you could se that the dogs realy loves running agility.

There are some great pitcures of your dog, however some of the pitcures are unfortunately cut to close to the dog for my taste. i.e. ID: nov2_080726_1D3665 (where a great pitcure unfortunately lack so air on the top, with the result that the tip off the tail are missing in the pitcure).

My favourite are therefor nov1_080726_1D3278, and I love the pitcure where your beardie is barking at you from the table. Such pitcures are fun to have.


Anyway that is only my opinion and I am not a proffecianal photograph at all.

Good luck with the pick! We also wish you all the best in future training and competition with your dog!

Best regards,
Venke & Mia (my beardis)

I appreciate for your thoughts, Venke! Interesting comments about getting shots from further back... you're right... this is a true partnership sport so it would be good to see that interaction!

I usually want to forget about the barking on the table :-), but he had a good excuse here... We run in different venues -- one asks for a down on the table and the other the judge can select either a down or a sit. Bryce immediately went into the down (good in AAC) and then I asked him to sit. Not a happy boy! :-). In years to come it might be fun to have that shot though :-).

We had a great weekend -- 4 runs, 4 firsts and 3 Qs -- and lots of fun down time :-).

Yes I know the barking is not somthing we really appreaciate the good thing is that at least you dont miss points for barking in agility. My point is that pitcures like that is pitcures you will learn to love! But I do understand your frustration with the barking.

Mia don't bark at agility but She just have to tell me that obediance is to slow, as you may understand we are far from compeating level in obediance. And we woun't mention here ability to speek when she do herding:(.

Sorry for the misstyping in last response, time to clean my computer apperently.
