Year of the Dogs

National Geographic photographer Vincent Musi is used to photographing bears, elephants, tigers, lions, sheep, and pigs, but dared to try something wild and crazy: dogs. He invites friends and neighbors to bring in their canine companions where he captures their beauty, spirit, and personality using the same lighting and photographic techniques that he does for National Geographic. The results are exquisite--arresting close-ups that dignify each dog with grace and humor. von Musi, Vincent J. und Musi, Vincent J.
