Katarzyna Siminiak, Waiting Beauty (Thalia, Nova Scotia duck tolling retriever,
Poland). Katarzyna won second prize in the "Dog Portrait" category.
With the dog days of Summer coming up fast—it was so humid here yesterday the air was practically dripping—it's fitting that the prizes for Dog Photographer of the Year have been announced. Huffington Post has a nice and fairly extensive portfolio that is worth a visit if you like dogs.

Jemma and I were robbed! Maybe it's her alternative lifestyle?

I was hoping that "Dog Photographers of the Year" was about, you know, dogs taking photographs.

Disclaimer. JIlly is an old friend of mine, and she goes way back with dogs, from showing at Crufts to running a dog 'Pension' on the Riviera.

There seems to be a train of storms traveling North along the Eastern seaboard. Very humid here in the Philly area. Today, sunny spells punctuated by brief downpours. Tropical appearing cloud masses. I see on AccuWeather radar that the Finger Lakes have been under the worst of it. How loud is that little brook by your house?

We could have a Baker's Dozen of 'our best three dog photographs' or something, what say you Mike? Might liven up the show a bit -- bow wow!
