Sunday afternoons are often the time for me to go hunting for images. I take my bike and photo equipment on my back, and I hit to road. No precise plan in mind, photo opportunities are coming my way naturally…

Two weeks ago, on such outing, I met Éric and his superb german shepherd dog: Shooter, at Terrasse-Vaudreuil.

I could not resist, when I saw the beast, had to ask Éric permission to take pictures of his dog, while Shooter was playing in the water.

It was a short shooting session, I am really proud of the outcome.

Shooter is still a young dog. At one year and a half, he is full of energy.

As usual, don’t forget to click on the images to see them in their full sizes.

Éric could have played fetch with Shooter all afternoon long, the dog always asked for more.
