Dogs In Action Photo Contest Winners
Thank you to all the photographers that shared their best shots of dogs in action in this "cutest dog contest" with chances to win and awesome gift bundle.
A special thanks to friend and professional photographer Christian Vieler for his collaboration as a guest judge in this free photo contest. Christian Vieler is a 48 year old photographer living and working in Waltrop, Germany. "I worked over 10 years as a freelance journalist, before I joined a creative agency and managed Social Media Accounts for different brands. While working as Social Manager I started shooting dogs in my living room. In 2013 I did my first "Dogs Catching Treats“ series. I quite my job at the end of 2016 and started working as a professional dog photographer.
"Every good action contest needs a water shots. We have many good entries in the ViewBug contest, but I like „Splash and Grab“ the most, because of it has a slight different perspective and point of view. We have a powerful and dynamic "running through water" -shots, but this one – caught in a turn-a-round-move, drives my attention more into the subject. The action seems to be frozen for a millisecond, because of the focused eyes of the dog. I wonder myself - What’s happening next?" - Christian Vieler
"Every sport and disc shot in the competition is great, so I had to ask myself why I stumbled over and over again on this photo. It’s not the little story behind, that tells us that we can see Tel Aviv in the background – it’s more about seeing the ground in the jump shot gives me a greater feeling for the dynamics of the movement. " - Christian Vieler
