Another little homeless mother dog waiting for someone to adopt her at Amigos de los Animales in Mazatlan, Mexico. She was sitting on a dog crate where she had a litter of puppies she was still nursing. This was quick grab shot with the Lumix point 'n shoot.
Phil, still enjoying your p&s experiment. Just how much do you miss using a DSLR? I've been using my g'friends D40 a little and even though it's pretty small by DSLR standards, I still find that I'm only taking it out when I
really feel like using it, as opposed to all the time with my p&s, just in case.
Saying that, now that I sometimes take what some would call 'proper' shots(aside from still taking night "light' one's), the difference in quality is quite remarkable, so perhaps I should put more effort into lugging the D40 around!
This latest shot of another homeless dog at the shelter is, again, just lovely, yet also painful, to me at least. You really capture the yearning and the helplessness in the dog, and the situation it's in. You just seem to have a knack for really showing that, rather than it being 'simply' a dog photo, if you know what I mean. I don't mean to denigrate others' photos of dogs by saying that; maybe the situation and
their resultant yearning & need(the subject in other words!)contributes somewhat to my feelings.
Looking at this photo and wishing I could just go there and bring her home with me.
Anyway, thanks for continuing to post your canine capture's!
