Picture of the Week - My Dogs

My assignment from class last week was to capture a decisive moment in an action photo.  I quickly learned that capturing anything in motion is no easy task.  It takes a great deal of patience, and I had to take a lot of pictures in order to get a good one.  But, it was pretty rewarding once I got the picture I was looking for, and I was proud of myself when I would finally get a good one! 

This week, my photo of the week is actually going to be photos of the week because I couldn't decide between 2 of the pictures.  Both of them are action shots taken of my dogs playing with each other. 

Here they are....
