I have four photos that touched me, and I want to share them before they get lost in the shuffle. We had a nasty rainy day yesterday, and the house was warm and cozy. I saw all three dogs sleeping in a row,a rare but beautiful sight. They were so at peace.
Fate sleeping is one of the most beautiful subjects for my photography. Every one of them touches me differently and highlights this dog’s beauty and energy.
Bud has had a rough lough in his first few years, and sometimes, when I look at him sitting in my lap or Maria’s, I see some sorrow, perhaps even memory. We are lucky to have him; pain in the ass though he can be. He is a great spirit, getting older and always healing.
Zip almost never rests, but he lay on the raised garden bed and waited for me to come. I think these four photos show the character and love involved in having and living with animals. I h ope I am never without them again in my life.
These pics of the dogs and Zip were the best!
Lucky them and lucky you and Maria!
Yup, these 4 photos are definitely my year end favorites.
Long live all sentient beings!
Just looking at them reaffirm’s there is some peace left in the world and you are so fortunate for those moments.
Such amazing moments with animals! This made me so happy-thanks for sharing!!
Beautiful photos, Jon. Thank you! Just finished my Christmas card list while listening to Jacqueline Schwab, piano… and reading your blog. A perfect early morning.
Perfect for me to year..I have to check out Jacqueline Schwab, I’ve heard about her but never HEARD her…
You have yourself a snow cat. I don’t remember, who was the snow dog, maybe Lenore?
Sleeping with no worries – precious
