PAW: A boy and his dog.
After viewing "Julian Holding Fritz" and all the other recent photos of cute dogs and cute kids, I decided to post my own favorite snapshot of this genre: http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=2385946&size=lg I could never take a candid, or semi-candid, photograph of my sun. As soon as he knew there was a camera, he would stare at the lens until the camera was put away. I do have pictures of the back of his head, when I snuck up on him, but generally it's the "deer in the headlights" pose or none at all. (Of course, now he walks around with his digital camera telling everyone, "Don't look at me, just pretend I'm not here.")

Surprised Boy, evil dog. At least that's how it looks to me. Daniel J.

Evil??? He was the sweetest dog you could want, even when he grew to 100 lbs. Peter J. Alling wrote: Surprised Boy, evil dog. At least that's how it looks to me. Daniel J.

No Way, Peter: That's a curious, playful look! Over the years, I've had ten malamutes, and all have been gentle with people and kids, and most other dogs. They can, however, be, ah, confrontational with some animals. Mine were great rabbit and bird hunters, and they would chase the deer that come into our yard into the woods, at least until they got kicked a few times. When we were visiting Kotzebue, Alaska, we enjoyed the Inuit museum, run by the local Native Alalskan corporation. They told us that if the Inuit were threatened by a grizzley or even a polar bear while out hunting, they would simply cut the dogs loose and walk home. The dogs would stay and fight the bear until all the dogs were dead. They couldn't keep even one dog with them to help get their gear home, because none would tolerate missing the challange. The are dogs of great courage and loyalty, if not intellegence. Dan Peter J. Alling wrote: Hey, I've had a couple of malamutes in my life. Sweet dogs, (unless your a small fast moving animal then you're dead), but the angle of the pup's head and the almond eyes conspire to give him a aspect that, to me, looks he's contemplating a ghastly murder.
Re: PAW: A boy and his dog.
Thanks Boris! I wish I could try again. The dog is long gone, and the boy is 31. At the age show in the photo, it was rare to get one to slow down long enough to get a photo, let alone both. They were sitting down looking very nice, but when I grabbed the camera, they both gave me the "deer in the headlights" look. As soon as I snapped, the ran off to continue their game with the tennis ball. This is the best I have to remember them by.

The boy is very surprised. I think I would crop on the right until it became a square. And the dog is quite serious. You know - I am being photographed for the first time of my life, I must look serious kind of seriousness. It is funny, but I think I would try it few more times... It looks like you are on the way to making some idea happen, but not there just yet.

Let's hope the boy has/would have kids of his own and hope he likes to point a camera to them every now and then. Boris ([EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED])
