The Sport For Frequent Flyers...

[Photo of dog unavailable due to copyright constraints]

Flyball!

The picture was the leadoff photo in the Los Angeles Times Orange County edition article about Orange Crush. The dog's front legs are completely tucked up and there is a very determined, intense look on her face. The background is blurred, indicating her speed and the setting sunlight is on her face. The photographer captured the speed, grace, and athleticism of Flyball. He also won first place in a photography contest with this picture.

Price: $2.50 (US) each plus shipping and handling.
