Friday Dog of the Day

Cats seem to rule the Internet.

Every Friday, for the better part of the last two years, I have been posting my dog photos to my Facebook album, under the title "Friday Dog of the Day."

The time has come to ramp up my efforts against the predominance of cats on Facebook. Friday Dog of the Day will be launching its own Facebook page this Monday. Does the world need it? Frankly, yes. They are quite charming portraits, often with witty titles. I consider it a good kind of photographic graffiti.

Ruby loves the beach, Bainbridge Island, Washington.

It was his grandmother's car.

She gave it to him when he turned 18.  The only body work it has ever had was the driver's side doors were pounded out.  Of course, it has been repainted. 

The owner smiled when I asked him about braking distance.  "I'll tell you this much, this baby can burn some rubber."  When asked the size of the engine, he said 420.  I looked suitably impressed.  

Consequences for shooting people.

I received some nice news yesterday: my work has been accepted into the final round of judging for the 2012 International Fine Art Photography Competition and Grand Prix de la Découverte.  

I appreciate all the support and encouragement.  Here are 9 of the 10 images I submitted.  The 10th image appears earlier in this blog: here.
