Whippets run about 30-35 MPH. The dogs chase a lure attached to a

string which simulates a rabbit. You can see the string in the dogs

shadow. I pre-focused on the string and panned the camera with the

dog shooting when I was even with the pine tree. I got lucky cathing

the our dog in full extention.

The dog makes a nicely curved, weighted line. It reminds me of a brush stroke in a calligraphic character.
