This will not become a dog blog; this will not become a dog blog; this will not become a dog blog.
That said, we have a dog now! Or, at least, we are co-parenting a dog now. Buddy, the dog. He’s the best. He’s a weirdo. And surely I will be making many more photos of the dude. But I promise not to post any of them here. Unless they’re too good not to, of course.

“You know, people just don’t understand what is involved in this — this is an art form! You know, I think that most people just think that I hold a camera and point it at stuff, but there’s a heck of a lot more to it than just that.”
-Larry, talking to a woman at the bar, towards the end of Groundhog Day.
I’d never caught that moment before, but I still love the movie, despite them making the photojournalist the lamest character involved.

One of the first images made with my new Ricoh GRiii (it has a wider lens, hdf filter, and less dust on the sensor than my Ricoh GRiiix).
It’s always nice to have a pet in the house to use as a test subject when working with new cameras. Buddy didn’t mind.
