Day 208 - That poor, doomed ball

Warm evening sun warms the colour of Marlee's fur and deepens the blue of the water in this photograph taken the other day at the Mactaquac marina.

The water is clear enough that you see her legs as she paddles but there's also her reflection to contend with, making for an interesting lower half to the dog figure in centre frame.

I'm pleased with the composition of this shot as well, with the location of the bush, dog and finally ball moving your eye from bottom left to top right, in coordination with Marlee's chase of her orange prey. It adds to the sense of action in the photograph, heightens the sense of danger for that poor, doomed ball.
