It's a wonderful time of the year to save a life.

All these AZ Happy Tails pups are looking for homes.  They donned some colorful bow ties, collars and put their best paw forward.  I think they look beautiful against the wintery blue backdrop.

A Good Dog Deserves a Good Home

Good dogs in every color, shape and size are looking for love at your local shelter or rescue. The dogs below are dreaming of a loving home with a soft bed, some good food and belly rubs. If you can make their dreams come true, they would love meet and are available for adoption with azrescue.org in Phoenix, AZ.

Photography Tip - Capturing Curiosity

Whispery sounds are a great way to get a cat's attention.

Put your cat's favorite bed or piece of cat furniture in a place that has good light, get creative with perspective and try shooting from a high angle. Make some whispery sounds, focus on the eyes and be ready to capture their curious expression when they look at up at you.  Cats have the most amazing eyes and high angle perspectives are a wonderful way to showcase them.  

Don't forget about the background. It is an important element in portraits. Seek out clean backgrounds and colors that compliment your subject. Wood floors can make a beautiful backdrop for a cat portrait.
