Polka Dots & Ham
Posted on July 15, 2010 in Animals, Pet Photography
The image was in my mind before I even got out of my car. I saw a woman putting on these great red and white polka dot boots and taking her dogs to the show. I’ve noticed that whenever there is a chance that the outdoor dog show rings will be muddy, some handlers wear very colorful boots. To me that equals a photo op! I tried SO hard to get a shot of just the boots and the little Terrier, but this yellow Lab kept wandering into the scene. After a while it became comical….I’d take an image and lo and behold there is the Lab. Every time! This image is a favorite because it’s like he was lurking off to the right and just as I pressed the shutter, he took one step forward so his face would be on camera! So adorable & funny! What a ham!
