Our local dog handler - from an evening shoot a couple of weeks ago.
Edit: Perhaps a bit more explanation is needed. Richard Corfield is a local man who deals with canine behaviour and psychology. I often see him walking the dogs along the narrow lanes over the moors where I live. Anyway, I suggested a photoshoot and he willingly obliged. We reccied a few spots and the idea was to use a long lens and have the road disappearing off into the background. Most imges were taken with him walking towards the camera and with a lot more road, except this one, and I was lucky enough to catch the dog looking back at me which really helps make the image. I might upload a couple more although I doubt they will do as well as this one. At least you know the story behind the images. He might feature in a portrait soon - as long as I can coax him into the studio 
Thanks, Ian.

You have an eye for the unusual Ian, cracking shot.
Hope your keeping well, we havent' had a meet up for ages!
Cheers all, especially Andy for the award.
Rich - been really busy just lately so not had much chance to get out and about. Could do with a good jaunt to be honest. Still, must not complain !
Ian.
Me neither unfortunately, but will be off soon to get some spring flowers (with a bit of luck!)
Plenty of Orchids this way Rich - still some left at Cressbrook Dale as well. Best be quick though.
Ta all...
Well seen Paul? Well planned you should say - I put a lot of effort into this shoot. Couldn't plan for that dog looking round though
Cheers, Ian,
Hi Darren - thanks very much - good to see you Friday evening.
Cheers Paul. Wow, POTW, not had one of those before...
nice one Ian, glad to see this has the recognition it deserves
Excellent photo, & nice bit of luck with the dog looking back.
I'm not sure about the angle. It's not enough to be arty, & just looks like it needs straightening.
Works well in B&W though.
Big thanks to eveyone for clicks and comments.
Dave,
Thanks for the comment. It's the road that's on an angle, not the camera. I'm not into angled images.
Cheers, Ian.
Could you give some more details on the shot for educational purpose. I love the shot. It is so perfect.
Brilliant work !!!
Congratulations on all its awards
Helen
Like everyone's said, the single dog looking back certainly makes this great shot. Depth of field excellent too. Well done.
