Best in the World

Have you ever dreamt about attending a world championship? A competition where attendance is free and you can meet the athletes? Your dream is coming true.

Naperville’s Nike Park is the site of the Ashley Whippet World Series Invitational on August 30 and 31. It’s a unique opportunity to see the world’s finest dogs going airborne to catch Frisbees^®. The details are at World Championships  

You may wonder how this sport came about. Check out my prior post on the event at Zenfolio | Chuck Derus | Disc Dog

The Shot

Last year I tested the capabilities of my new camera. The autofocus is so good that it locked on and maintained focus on a dog’s eye running full speed across the large field. And the ability to capture 30 images per second meant I had a much better chance at catching the peak of the action.

This image was my favorite from a pleasant afternoon of watching athletes who truly love their sport.

Thanks for looking,

Chuck Derus
