About	This is Kuu, our Shetland Sheepdog, looking longingly after the two highschool students he knows are going down to play tennis in the municipal courts. We pass them most mornings. Every 20 or 30 years the Tama River turns into a raging torrent that fills this flood plain from levee to levee and God save us if it ever overflows them! But in the intervening years, there are tennis courts, baseball pitches and soccer grounds all along it.

Beautiful shot taken from the dog's point of view. There is so much to see walking down the steps and into the foreground.
Let's hope they never overflow. There are enough disasters right now. We don't want any more for a few thousand years.

Our dog thinks cats are scary and doesn't want to tangle with them. But he'd LOVE to join the highschool kids in the tennis...

Dogs and tennis !
They are just too busy chasing cats, I suppose.

Interesting thought

regards,

The problem, John, is that with the wide-angle 20mm lens, getting more of Kuu in the picture would have given him an enormous rear end and a very small head... so I deliberately included only his head. I agree it looks a bit odd. Maybe a "least worst," though...

I am so pleased you liked the vertical panorama format. It is SO rare to see it but sometimes it is highly effective. Hope to see some examples from your fertile imagination!

Damn! I'd kill for an opposable thumb!! I'd guess those thought's whirl around in Kuu's head, Roger.
Good canine perspective here. Can you send your email address to my email?

Regards
Colin

I like the humour in this shot Roger

Why can't they indeed? Definitely an alternate perspective - I'd like Kuu to be more prominent in the the image.

Good perpective again, Roger. Funny how your dog is looking down to them...
You can give him the ball to play. ;-)
