Casper, the Friendly Dog

The last photo I took of a pet was of our cat Snowy, some 30 odd years ago. We called him Snowy because he was white, quite. One day he was accidentally locked in the coal shed, but that's another story.

This is Casper, and is very close to Ann, a wonderful lady who recently had an important birthday. Her husband Roger asked me to photograph Casper as a surprise for her. So one afternoon when Ann was out and about we popped back to the house and took the shots. It was great fun and Casper was a treat to work with.

Roger then had them framed, three main photographs and a collection arranged as above. I am told they went down very well, brownie points for Roger! And a belated happy birthday to Ann.

  2. Thanks Cathy for the kind words, but I cannot help feeling that most animals would not take direction as well...
