Battling Fuel Prices

Photo taken on Konica Minolta VS100-S film with a 1973 Minolta SRT-Super equipped with a 50mm f/1.4 lens.

I'm really stoked that I caught this guy on film. I saw him coming down the street at a fairly quick rate (that little dog was moving!) so I started tracking him with the manual focus lens. I had to wait to take this shot because there were a bunch of cars parked along the road between him and I. Luckily there was a little gap between two cars and I got a clean shot.

Great capture! Nice choice of shutter speed to freeze the dog's legs.

This is awesome! Like something out of the 80s (well except for the double kick board).

Although the roads in Australia would provide a slightly more bumpy ride....

Cool dogs indeed!

Thanks!

Yeah, I think they were both having a good time too. That little dog couldn't have been happier.

Thanks -- I had the shutter maxed out at 1/1000 seconds. Gotta love those old cameras!

I can imagine! Pretty cool tat's on the guy too, huh? Although I can't really make out what's written across his stomach.

Hook her up and give it a try -- just put some food in front of her.

Ha! I think anybody that has a beagle can empathize with this guy -- at least, I know I've joked about doing something like this myself.
