Loved the second shot. I thought that the second dog was cloned ;-)

 I have just  come back from an Easter weekend on the Wairarapa
 coastline with some nice  images of a seldomly visited part of New
 Zealand.  Weather was a bit  iffy and there was a strong swell
 generating a constant sea mist.  Will  post some BW's that convey the
 autumn mood of the place later.  At  one point we were joined by a
 couple of huntaways on holiday (a sheepdog  breed - see
 http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/newzealandhuntaway.htm for  information).
 Actually they were from just up the road, but the farmer's  father was
 out from the UK and took the dogs out for a rare chance to  see
 somewherebeyond the front gate.

 #2 is incredibly nice, the dogs's  stances being almost identical -- and the
 leading lines with the footprints.  Unusual and very nice shot.

Thanks Bob W, Marnie, and Bruce for commenting

yes, the two dogs are obviously very cued into each other and to their
master!  I like that photo too though I realised later that the focus
is sharpest on the more distant dog and it might have been better on
to have the dog in front sharpest. My favourite of these is actually
the dogs running towards the camera
http://www.pbase.com/kiwibiologist/image/76889603 - it captures the
mood.

Nice beach.

I'm not a dog fan at all, and would never own one, but I do like to
see animals running free and enjoying themselves. This photo captures
that very well:

The shot of the two dogs standing near the waves is pretty cool
because they are in almost exactly the same stance.  Nice shot there!
