18. Congratulations to MindfulNJ and California Peggy!

This was a challenging assignment. Capturing motion--without just being a blurred out of focus shot--is tough.

There were some really wonderful entries in this contest!

I happened to get lucky one morning when I was walking my dog to the White Point Gardens in Charleston and there
were several dogs chasing each other at the off-leash park. I can't let Snowy off leash because she's a runner, but
she happily sat by my side while I snapped away and managed to get the Playtime at the Park shot.

Thanks for an interesting contest, Mz Pip!

Here was Snowy (on the right) greeting that white Lab on the left in the Playtime photo:
