Fine and original action shot !! great movement effect of the legs, and a nice framing too... did you have the camera steady or panning the runners ? and, just as a curiosity, which was the time ?

BTW, don't know why, but I thought that Greyhound races were unknown, in Suomi...

Hi Luigi. I had never seen a greyhound race before. This was in
England last week. I was panning with 1/30 s and I think this was
the best of the shots just because of the movement.

This really is excellent.

You should offer this to "Greyhound Weekly" or whatever the magazine is.

Excellent shot, with a nice amount of 'movement'.

I went to the greyhound racing in Manchester recently, a great evening.

Erkki -

Superb framing, color and action. I'm also relieved to see this is of dogs and not the busses (coaches) used for long-distance, inexpensive travel in the US.
