Awesome pet photography
There are many people who can take excellent photographs of their dogs or cats or other pets. They know how to put in the correct lighting, the right shutter speed, the correct angle, the good pose, the time of the day when the pets would look best, and so on. And their photographs do come out very well. Then there are people such as John Hallam. I don’t think I need to say too much about his brand of pet photography. Here are some of the photos of his two dogs: Ollie and Rufus. Judge for yourself on why he is so different from your ‘normal’ pet photographer.
With each photo, he has a caption that makes the photo complete. I have included the caption below the photo. Clicking the photo will take you to the photo’s page on Flickr.
Can we go Ollie? it says there are real animals! Hang on Rufus, it says here visit our cathouse! dad told us never to go in a cathouse, don’t know why.
You don’t scare me Rufus!
Ollie! What are you doing to Rufus?
No sign of any chickens yet Rufus. just sit on them for another couple of days. I just love chicken Ollie, are you sure this is going to work? Sure it will Rufus, remember we watched it on TV but that was a darn great eagle Ollie!
And his photostream on Flickr is full of photos like this. He is an excellent photographer otherwise also. Have a look at some of his macro shots. To get to his photostream just click here.
The world is full of awesome people.

Sure enough. I don’t think any praise is enough for creativity like that. Not for him, not for his dogs
