Nice photo! It does show their speed. I love the dog in the lead but too bad it only shows the hind legs ha. Our second adopted Greyhound broke her hind leg going around the bend because they push so hard off of it. Thank heavens they adopt them out nowadays, they make wonderful pets!

I know. I felt terribly guilty at the track until a friend of mine who has 3 adopted greyhounds said it was fine I was there. It's just amazing to watch them fly. Thanks for the comments and likes and etc (to all the commentors and likers)!

Location
Naples, Florida at the now (rightfully so) Naples-Fort Myers Greyhound Track.Time
11am ESTLighting
Was a super bright day so it’s always hard to have contrast on the subject. But the dirt/sand kicking up helped with that.Equipment
Canon 7D with a 100mm fixed lensInspiration
Even though the dogs are mistreated outside the track, seeing them run is a thing of beauty.Editing
I was in my newbie days of photography so I had no post-editing skills.In my camera bag
Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM UD is a great walk-around lens. Other than that, I pack based in the occasion.Feedback
Find the best spot based on lighting and angle to the subject. Easy on a racetrack.
