I’m glad you like it. I got the guy’s permission to take a few images of him practicing and this is one of a couple that seemed to ‘tell the story” but, as you say it is the dog who really makes it by adding that touch of interactive humour. The others are all ‘guy on a skateboard’ of which there are plenty of much better images out there. Serendipity, I suppose, as I didn’t ask the dog to walk by and I doubt that I was even more than faintly aware of his presence when pressing the shutter. So for him to look at the subject right at that moment…well, you just have to count your blessings really.
Thanks for your nice comment on my blog.
Truly appreciate it.
Also, I like this. The catch of the skater in the air is wonderful and then the dog.
He’s perfect.
