This is what I call Dodoïte’s ‘Dumb Corgi’ look. That’s when he’s happy. It’s just like a Corgi, except for his ears that are not straight up. Many people think that he’s an Australian Sheppard because of his ears.

Who’s faster? Is this dog running faster than the dragon boat crew behind?

On a short run, it’s not even a contest, the dog is much faster. Any dog, even a sausage dog aka a Dachshund, can out-accelerate a dragon boat. A Whippet or a Greyhound can easily out-accelerate a Porsche or a Ferrari. A Greyhound can reach 50 kilometers per hour in 3 steps.

You are done! After you’ve copied all of your photos from the memory card to the computer, should you:

1. Delete all the photos from your memory card?
2. Format the memory card on the computer?
3. Format the memory card in the camera?

My preference, and that’s what I’ve been using for a while, is none of these three alternatives.

Many people jog on the weekend, especially on the Vancouver Seawall.

Often, I see people jogging with their dog but with two Huskies? Never before.

Actually Huskies are great for jogging, since they love to run in a group. Their only problem is the heat… but this was in the early spring and in the morning of a fairly cloudy day, as you can see from the shadow underneath the dogs and the joggers.

Will these 3 photographers have the same images?

Two of these photographers are taking images at 400mm. The Nikon guy uses a 70-200mm and the TC2x and his tripod is not fully spread out to have a little bit more height. The Canon guy uses a 100-400mm. The only guy that is slightly different is the guy at the back with a 500mm and the Better Beamer on his flash.

They all have the same position, they all have the same height and they all have very similar lenses. I’m always interested in the periphery. What are the other photographers not seeing or not doing? If I can find it then my photos will be very different.

In the doggy world, there’s always a boss. Whenever a person comes near and interact, the dog will reevaluate: who’s the boss? Whenever another dog comes near and interact, the dog will reevaluate: who’s the boss?

Some animals exude confidence.

Chester is a ‘cool’ cat. Not much phases him. He is very interested in people. Chester doesn’t hiss, Chester doesn’t scratch, Chester doesn’t bite. I like Chester.

People adopt dogs. The bonding happens during the walk. Dogs will bond with the person because of the shared experience of going for the hunt walk.

The Bullitt bicycle is a cargo bike that is made in Denmark and is sold in town at only one specialty bicycle shop here in Vancouver, BC. It’s supposed to be the fastest cargo bike in the world.

The Golden Retriever is the cutest option available for the bike.

This guy is using a very old Fuji FinePix S3 camera and he seems puzzled. He looked through the viewfinder, he looked around, looked at the camera and the viewfinder.

He seemed puzzled… He went back and forth at least a dozen times.

Normally for almost all of my dog and cat photography, I’m either kneeling or laying down on my belly to be at the same level as the cat or the dog.

Buddha is a “shortie” and he knows that. Unlike almost all the other small dogs, he climbs and finds his way around to be either at eye level or above the people. That’s one of the ways of showing his dominance.
