Hi Joni
Lovely action shot, clear and sharp on the main subject and a nicely out of focus background. The PP work is very nicely done and as ever finished off with a neat frame
Regards
Pez

Excellent colour definition, contrast and sharpness here, Joni. Good cloning work, though I (think I) can see where you cloned: upwards from between her front paws, right? There's a halo around the brim of the tunnel and around her belly, and some repetitive patterns in the grass. Not too noticeable, but you might consider changing brush size, hardness and initial location frequently, that makes it easier. The halo can be avoided, or at least minimised, if you make a selection of things that cannot be touched and copy them to a new top layer.
Compo-wise, I'd love to see more space in front of Sophie. In speedy sports, like agility, space in front of the dogs enhances the sense of speed...
Just my 2 cents!

Hi Joni,
Ok I'm partical to labs and this is a fine specimen clearly seen against the lush green grass as she eagerly does which she loves with a passion us poor humans can only envy.
May she forever remain young.
Reagers, Tom

Another lovely action shot Joni, all the dogs you have shown in this series seem to be enjoying the competition. You have cropped this one nicely with Sophie leading out for the frame.
