@nodrognai Yes, I agree with you, Ian (his interest in his phone rather than in his dogs). This kind of thing drives me crazy, but he gave me a good photo op :)
@djclow Thank you, Donna. In reply to a comment you made earlier, I feel self-conscious myself, but I try not to be noticed by using either my smartphone camera, or, in this case, my telephoto lens. My lens only goes to 150, but it was good enough for this shot (I was just across the street). Anyhow, give it a try, if you're inclined. I would love to see what you get. :)
