Here is my attempt at photographing running dogs, our whippet in this case. It is not as easy as it seems. These dogs have been known to reach 60 km/h. I’m quite sure this was not the case this time, nevertheless the AF system of my trusty D50 got quite the workout. So did Comet by the way. I had to up the ISO to 400 as the light was almost gone and I wanted to get some decent shutter speed to freeze the action. Next time I’ll try it when the Sun is more generous with its rays.
