Often, when we photograph dogs, we focus on them and crop quite tightly. This week our theme was meant to encourage us to highlight the surroundings and give a sense of place.
This image is from a time when I was just beginning my career in pet photography, at a workshop in beautiful Virginia, USA. That workshop opened my eyes to the possibilities and to look at pet photography in such a different way – it truly started me down the path to where I am today. I love this image, even though there are things that, now with a couple of years under my belt, I would tweak. But it still remains significant to me because of that moment in time. Enjoy!
Next in the blog roll is Sweet Potato Pet Photos in Los Angeles. Let’s head to sunny California and see what locations she found!
Beautiful! The leading lines and the light is just perfect!
Very nice, beautiful dog and great location!!
I love the lines in the architecture. And the dog’s poise goes with it perfectly. Great shot!
