A Dog Is For Life Not Just For Christmas!

Don't you just love 'people watching' at Christmas? We went for a walk near Stonehenge today.
Families who rarely see each other were out walking off the seasonal excess in varying degrees of
harmony! This dog was running around completely out of control, ignoring the owners' vain attempts
to get her to come! It charged around like a lunatic, pestering other (better behaved) dogs.
At one point the owner's wife started to laugh. The owner, furious with embarrassment, shouted "It's NOT funny!".
At which point family members and nearby strangers laughed even more!

Still it was a chance to practice my panning with the Autofocus set to Servo!

Well panned! - as the owner probably felt afterwards. People, sheesh ;-)

agree completely - Bodmin Moor has also been like Piccadilly Circus today - well, not quite but certainly very busy! Happy Ice Fest to you John.

That is obviously a canine on a mission.
Great shot.
