This post is written in response to the requests I’ve received for tips on photographing dogs. Photography, in general, is subject about which A LOT has been written, so I’m going to hit on quick and simple ideas that I’ve found useful with my dogs. I’ll “focus” on these areas: dog wrangling, light, composition, equipment, and editing for taking dog portraits.

1. Dog wrangling. 

linus portrait 2017Linus is staring at the treat in my hand. Ths “stay” command allows a few seconds to focus and press the shutter a few times so I can choose the image I want.  Yes, Linus enjoyed the treat!

MetaThinking

By André Stauffer

We personalize our sneakers, our muesli, and our Coke. We personalize our car, our perfume, and the flavor of our electronic cigarette. The more “me,” the merrier. And if things are not customized, they’re simply standard. And nobody wants to be standard. So my question is: why the heck are we still writing in Arial?

for me.. what is blogging all about

An audience of one, is still an audience. and very best is ouselves , fine post , thank you giving a simple and truthful explanation on blogging.love all.

my 2 cents on design

After a few years into it, it is worth considering why do it. A lot of people blog these days. Initially blogging produced a new kind of writers. With no platform, struggling to get  ideas out but often did not know how. Now everyone can do it. By just doing it with no focus nor purpose, eventually, you will only have non-focused, non-purpose readers.
Consider picking and selecting what you care and want to focus on, you will find your readers, the ones that like what you like, the ones for which what you write matters. New to regular writing schedules, this took a while for me to fully realize and as of now, I’m still in the process of balancing my focus.

THE RIVER WALK

When Joshua was near the town of Jericho, he looked up and saw a man standing in front of him with sword in hand.

Read: Joshua 5:1-7:15, Luke 15:1-32, Psalm 81:1-16, Proverbs 13:1

Relate: The Calvanist says, “God is sovereign. He is on my side.” The Arminianist replies, “No, He has given us free will. He is on my side.” The republican says, “God demands holiness, He is on my side.” The democrat says, “No, He loves the poor, He is on my side.” The Methodist and the Presbyterian argue their point. The Catholic and the protestant duke it…

Solitude and Life 

by

Virgobeauty's Blog

Life should come with a sign that reads, “So many obstacles ahead that you shouldn’t even expect a smooth journey.” That sign would be placed just after the “buckle in sign.” And before the “we still haven’t mastered the course.”
Well, life, you come with the continuous lessons of patience, time, acceptance, resilience, and wisdom. I’ve learned that the external route affects the internal atmosphere. Often times, I remember the pain much more than the joys. But, the joys are priceless.
Is it because it’s the part that I wish I was immune too? Is it because no matter how loving and good your intent is, it still can’t be avoided? Does it come so often that I get tired of even questioning it and trying to remedy it? Yes, yes, and you got that right.
So, how do I deal without overthinking and allowing some things to be released…
