I think these are beautiful!! Do you find it hard to find a spot to shoot from? I have been doing groups but the problem is when I am on the side of the ring opposite where the dogs are being gaited, the rest of the group entries are on my side of the ring, standing in my way! So I have tiny windows of people and dogs to shoot through in the hopes of getting a good frame of a gaiting dog. They also often gait behind group signs, tent poles, flower pots, etc.

It looks like you had a nice overcast day making perfect lighting conditions for this!
