======================================== =========
The street I was on was a rather busy one. In addition to the cars there were plenty of kids and parents on their bikes riding on the sidewalk just a few feet in front of this dog's fence. This is what he was so interested in. I wish I could show you the whole series of shots I took but that would be redundant and rather boring I'm afraid.

In taking the shots I was lucky I didn't get hit from behind... The moment I saw him I simply stopped my car. I didn't even check to see if anyone was behind me or put my blinkers on. "It was an OMG! Grab the camera!" moment. Thank goodness it was already out of my bag and on the front seat ready to go.

This shot simply reinforces my belief that a wrong turn, an familiar street, a detour, anything unexpected can be a great shot just waiting to happen. In this case, if I had turned left like I was supposed to and followed my normal route I would have missed this completely.
