These are a few photos from the USDAA agility trials are Saratoga Springs this weekend.
These animals are simply amazing when you consider they run the course about as fast as a professional football player (US football). they run about 20ft/6m per second which would give them a 6.5 second 40m time. Top flight receivers run about 4 seconds per 40 but don't have tubes, tunnels, rings, stairs, hurdles and other assorted obstacles in their way. And they don't have to cut left and right constantly while maintaining that speed.

ReplyDeleteGreat shots! I use K10 and was wondering what settings you used for those images. I am photographing a show this weekend.
