She. She is a small greyhound and she has been confused with whippets before

Haha yes it is. I think she might be a mix. Greyhound/metal spring.

My yorkie is surely a mix, "boink-slΓΆrp-spring hairy thing"

Haha same here, well the greyhound is quiet enough, but I just got a rescue dog from ireland. Scottish Deerhound/greyhound mix. he's a year old and just found a noisy toy.

"Sqwiik swqkiikkqf!" Ah, lovely dogs. I could not do without my dear hairy (and utterly stinky) companion. I bet your dog is just as stin...lovely!

Acctually ours hardly ever fart. And seldom its the imfamous gas of the sighthound.
We've given her a few different brands of food too.
Another one we had before I used to say was dead inside. Maaan. Her farts could peel paint!

Dog farts, the dark matter of universe.

I let them discover the fact by themselves. In the meanwhile I will wear my gas mask

incredible!! i have a greyhound too, theyre wonderful dogs
what kind of lens did you use for this?
π: 0 β©: 1
The rather superb but slightly elderly Nikkor 400 F/3.5 AiS. Really a lovely lens.
No AF though. But then you get it for a fith of the price of the new one with AF so.
Besides, I only use manual focus on all my lenses so I dont know what im missing.
Really good lens. Soft and nice bokkeh. Apparently its even better wide open than F/5.6.
If you can find one, get it.
And team it up with the Nikkor TC-301 X2 teleconverter. Gives you a really good 800/7.1 lens.
All of my running greyhounds is shot with the 400 on my Nikon D300.
(wow. Long answer - thank you for diggin my shot mate).

I've got 28 faves to attend. [link]

Thank you very much!
It took some practice to get this.

Fantastic!
I wish I could capture mine in a shot like this as well. The best I have are 2 in the backyard which makes for a pretty poor backdrop hehe.

Been meaning to answer this for a while.
Thank you - first of all - for your comments.
Hah yeah, It's not a big problem having her of the leash.
She uses her nose more than her eyes almost, haha.

EPIC. Great shot man! I really like how the doggy is completely off the ground in the shot.

Ah, thanks. Glad you like it. I've had ALOT of training trying to get theese shots. Check out my things for a few more greyhoundshot if you liek it.
π: 0 β©: 1
How does the training work?!
I'll be sure to check out the other pics!
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, the training is for me.
And that is photog. alot of fast dogs. Get to know how fast a shutter i need to freeze them, and how high ISO i can use without destroying the super-fine details.
And the most part is REALLY KNOWING THE LENS.
Since i use manual fokus i need to know exactly how fast it moves to that i can find and capture a dog in that speed.
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh dang. Manual focus takes skill dude. I only use manual for my lens if the object i'm takin a picture of isn't moving haha.
But yeah I totally know what you mean! I had to take pictures of sports games and it really does take practice to learn exactly what setting the camera should be on for the best results.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah man. I shot everything, part from my Tokina 11-16 wide angle with manual focus, so I keep my eyes sharp with all that work.
I do love it though.
The tougher it is the more fun it is, it seems. haha.

Spoken like a true photographer haha.

Hahaha. Soon I'll start building my own cameras and stuff ;D

Wow, one can practically SEE his speed!!

A good thing. Thank you. (and it's "her speed" for future comments) Thank you for checking it out.

cool

Haha your dad is right of course. But critiqe is wery useful aswell.
When I shot Tira i set focus where I know she'll pass and pray for the best. Only way to do it.
But for this image, i didnt. So this might be the exception that prove the rule?
π: 0 β©: 1
Hahaha, I try to do that as well, but my whippet just lures the playground to random places, and when I move the camera and refocus, of course the turn to the where I had my focus at first
