It turns out that I’d been enjoying the work of Paw Prints Photography for quite a while and didn’t even know it – they donate their services to the Animal Welfare League of Arlington, a site where I’ve spent many an hour just looking through the pictures of animals. The photos on their blog, however, are even more fun and better than a cup of coffee for an afternoon pick-me-up. I like the above action shot as an animal photo but the pictures from Christmas in Middleburg are beautiful art.
If you’re in the market for pet photography you should check them out. In addition to clearly being talented they give back to the animal and human community through donated work for shelters and Vet Dogs, an organization that provides service dogs to disabled veterans.
If you’re not in the market, well, just go look at the cute kitty. Who cares what Warren Ellis says?
Well I used to say something in my profile about not quite being a “tinker, tailor, soldier, or spy” but Tom stole that for our about us page, so I guess I’ll have to find another way to express that I am a man of many interests.
Hmm, guess I just did.
My tastes run the gamut from sophomoric to Shakespeare and in my “professional” life I’ve sold things, served beer, written software, and carried heavy objects… sometimes at the same place. It’s that range of loves and activities that makes it so easy for me to love DC – we’ve got it all.
