Wet


Canon EOS 40D, Tamron 28-300mm, 1/250sec, f/8

This image was taken at the edge of Grassmere.
I was taking landscape shots including the reflections in the water, which was disturbed only by the passage of a couple of swans, when a couple arrived with their water-loving dog.
All possiblity of getting reflections in the water vanished as the dog frollicked in the lake.
I could have become Mr Grumpy and stalked off muttering about dogs disturbing other peoples enjoyment but instead I recognised that here was another photo opportunity.
I took this shot as the dog emerged from the water, it is not the sharpest pet photograph but as a record of the joy the dog got from the water it was worth keeping and it certainly qualifies for the title 'WET'
