Obviously a... ehem... male dog.

If you haven't already, I suggest posting this to /r/photoshopbattles

How is this PerfectTiming? It's a dog mid jump, not some crazy coincidence or anything like that.

Edit: I'm sure awww would love this, though.

I disagree. I think the timing is pretty perfect. You're not seeing a dog about to jump or at the end of his jump - you're seeing the exact moment the jump is at its apex, its most beautiful. Catching a jump like that isn't easy. I think it's quite perfect timing.

i would seriously like to see you capture an image similar. Don't take that as a dick statement, i'd just really like you get that shot, since you say it's so easy. As someone who has a small dog and tries to capture images of it while it's running/jumping, what this person has captured is anything but easy.

then that would be a running photo - not a jumping photo
