Like the sequence with the dog walker - I’ve been looking at a similar kind of thing but keeping the framing the same between shots - I did then try some photoshop wizardry to try and merge the images together to get movement within the one shot but it all went a bit weird ...

Thanks, Richard. I just found it funny how they all behind each other like little ducklings.

Second to last is my favorite - the birds on the branches. Love the way it's framed - all that space!

Thanks. I was happy that they didn’t flew away right away. That’s what they usually do, when I point my camera…

Great! Love the shots of the dogs and the birds on the branches. And the streak of water on the sand (seven from the top) is eerily dreamy.

Thank you, Alex! It was the first day of sunshine after a long stretch of grey days and the beach was very busy with dogs.

These photos are beautiful!

Do you use a camera or just your phone?

Great to see your visual journey as usual! This photo series is even more cool since you included dogs as a beautiful subject ;)

#10 dogs on a journey home, or some such Disney inspired impression! Thanks for all the visuals.

They looked a bit like ducklings to me all lined up like this.

Thank you, Glenn! They are actually fun and get me out of the house when I don’t feel like taking my camera.
