Small Snapshots--Movement

 

Yay! Small Snapshots time!! This week's prompt was Movement! I had an idea in mind but ran out of time to try to get it! So perhaps for a different challenge I will get the picture I want!

The second idea I had when I thought of movement was my dogs playing. I've been able to get some fun shots of that in the past so I went out the other afternoon with that goal in mind.

Our dog Butch is much much smaller than our large dog Kudjo and my brother's dog. We almost every day take them to this grassy field a 5 minute walk from out house. It one day will be an expanded part of the town cemetery but for now it's a beautiful park for the dogs. We rarely ever see anyone else out there so it's nice and private. They sometimes mow the grass but right now it's getting pretty tall. Here's a picture to give you an idea.


He's a mutt... half shih tzu and the other half is chihuahua and miniature pinscher. So we often can't see him in the grass as he's pretty short.

He thinks he's a large dog though so he runs (and sometimes gets trampled) by the big guys. Don't even try to tell him he's little. He won't listen.

 

This is what made me think of movement! He has to leap over the grass to get through quickly! It's really funny to watch! He does the same thing when he's playing fetch in the shallow part of the river!

And I have one picture from the archives... ok bear with me! I don't often post a lot of pictures of my pets on here... just twitter!
This is my brother's dog and our dog playing.


Ok! Now it's your turn! Let's see your movement pictures!! I'll leave the linky up for like a month or something that way if you're busy this week you can still post when you get to it! Also... I'm kinda loving all your guy's archive pictures! So let's adjust the guidelines to this photo thing shall we? The goal of Small Snapshots is to go out and take NEW pictures. But if an old one ends up in the post sometimes that's ok too! Alright! get posting! And I haven't forgotten to check out last week's! I'm getting around to catching up on blogs!

Next week's prompt: Summer! I thought we'd do something a little different. It's been gorgeous here all sunny like! So what does summer mean to you in pictures! If it's not summer there... alter it to fit you! :)
