Fetching at sunset

Description

Nikon 18-200 lens at 35; f/5; S1/5000; ISO 200.
As I was shooting without a tripod and wanted to get the image as sharp as possible to be able to freeze the action, I shot this in shutter priority mode with a speed of 1/5000 looking directly into the sun. I really like what I got here and there was very little manipulation of any sort in Photoshop. I am eager to here with Jim thinks of this. I tried lightening the levels a bit, and can make it even lighter, but I prefer the chiaroscuro effect, and I just love the attitude I caught the dog in.
