Houstonist Flickr Group Photo of the Day - High Jump

The shot from flickr user and houstonist photo contributor Jeff Balke.

We've gone from buildings to the dogs this week. Here's another awesome shot from Jeff, this time of a competitor at the Reliant Park World Series of Dogs. According to Jeff, this little guy was "tearing up the course." I think it's important to not view this as a shot of a dog on an obstacle course, but rather as an athlete in the zone competing for his life. The dog just has that intense look on his face.

Also, why does everyone in the group love pictures of dogs so much? I guess Laurence has the market cornered, eh?
