Default BFFs
This is a photograph I made of my son, and our dog we got from a shelter, a while back. His name was Shadow, given by my son because he claimed that everywhere he would go, that dog would follow him around like a shadow. We no longer have him because he needed more space than we could provide, he was definitely an outside doggie, and our family really misses him. We returned him back to the shelter where we got him from, and I’m pleased to say that he was immediately adopted by a family of six.

They do look like they're best buddies and it's obvious in your photo. Well done.

aw man... breaks my heart the two of them couldn't be together...i can feel their connection - creating that feeling of connection through a photograph is the essence of visual arts - nicely done.
