I like the blur of the crowd with the dogs in focus, it gives a sense of speed.<br /><br />Love your last one, it does remind me of Ghost Rider. I love to experiment with the camera and even the mistakes can be great shots. Maybe one of us should do a contest/challenge along those lines.SquirrelQueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00634513897599275287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-86876334823377962562010-03-01T09:47:55.999-05:002010-03-01T09:47:55.999-05:00Rick: you are welcome!

I might be too late for the photo hunt challenge, I hope not? Anyway, I truly enjoyed this series with the sled dogs and the pictures of the ducks are stunning! I LOVE the light and the detail you captured on that male duck. Your snow pictures and snow landscapes are prettier than any snow I've seen in my life!Jientjehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14133675047491618720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-19272159051934554852010-03-01T01:21:23.506-05:002010-03-01T01:21:23.506-05:00Very cool (or rather cold) shots of the dog race. ...Very cool (or rather cold) shots of the dog race.
