261:365 Choke

21.07.2009

For July's Monthly Scavenger Hunt.

A choke chain, is used for training dogs. If they pull against the lead they are physically choked whilst a submissive dog will barely notice its presence. This form of training is now going out of favour and being replaced with dog whispering which is much kinder to the dogs.

This is one of those ideas that I've had in my head for ages but when it came round to doing it I couldn't quite transfer idea from head to camera. I will probably revisit now that I have my choke chain but this means I actually finished MSH early this month!

Also for monochromatic TOTW.

Please don't pimp out your photo/photostream/product in my comments. First instance I'll delete, second and I'll just block you. It's a sad state of affairs that I even have to say this!
