I took this shot yesterday whilst walking the Birmingham to Wolverhampton canals. It's fairly rare to see a barge on these stretches, so obviously, I had to take a snap!
For some reason - I didn't notice this couple's dog running alongside them at the time as I was concentrating more on the barge and reflection. For the pretty murky and muddy water it was sailing on, was quite pleased with how it turned out.
Quickly, I'd like to say a massive thank you to everyone for their comments and fav's these last few days. Somehow, I've managed to get 3 pictures on the popular page at the same time, which is quite a big deal!! Your support and encouragement continues to push me forwards - even on days when inspiration appears to abandon me.
@quietpurplehaze Thanks kindly Hazel - i saw this coming towards me, but failed to notice the dog until it got close. He was bounding alongside without making a sound!
What a great looking barge! We just don't have anything like this here. Wonderful colorful shot and the reflections are great. The dog so wants to be with his people. Isn't it fun to have a great surprise when you process and photo? Love this shot!
