Title: Toffee finds a new hobby
Post by: afx on March 07, 2021, 21:33:27

Shortly before her first birthday Toffee discovered a new hobby.
While on one of our usual dog walks in an area with a gravel quarry, we encountered some guys racing their model RC cars.
She was at the cars much faster than we could react, and we were scared that she would damage them, but the guys just laughed at us.
They told us the cars can handle a lot of stress, the race them at speeds over 100km/h.
Luckily I had a camera with me (the last outing with the D750 before I sold it).

So the chase was on:

But then this thing turned and the chase was reversed.

And then those things started to hide behind snow clouds...
