Guard Dog by allie912

Guard Dog

While walking this afternoon I came upon this basic bike and thought it would make a good nostalgic picture. I had barely raised my camera when a tornado of fur and barks exploded onto the scene. In very strong terms he informed me who was in charge. I got the message and did not linger.
I love this, love the selective coloring - love the dog in the background, and love the story :-)

Glad you didn't drop your camera. Looks like a mighty fierce puppy, perhaps his bark is worse than his bite?

I'm always a softie for any bicycle image, and just love the selective coloring. The dog adds exciting suspense!

Your descriptive prose is just wonderful. You provided me with a crisp mental vision of exactly what happened..and you made me laugh.

Lovely. Very nice composition and processing. What do you use for the editing? The dog also did his job perfectly.

@yoelao I used PS Elements to create the selective color. It was just what I pictured in my mind!
