High-res kateoplis:

English Springer Spaniel by Tim Flach, from his stunning book, Dogs Gods:

The breed can be traced back to the early 1800s when it was first clearly separated from the cocker spaniels, which are smaller and associated with hunting woodcock. In those days, the springer might flush so that a trained falcon would take the birds. Today, the breed has found its skills also adapted to policing work, where, for example, it was used as a sniffer dog for explosives after the 2005 London bombings. Other applications of its scenting ability include finding illegal immigrants, mobile phones in prisons, and bumblebee nests. This picture was taken on the Elveden Estate in Norfolk, England which was developed into a great shooting property in the nineteenth century by the Maharaja Dalip Singh who, in exile from his homeland in the Punjab, became passionate about raising pheasants.


This portfolio is fantastic; def. check it out.
