Why Can't We Be Friends?

Dog Day Afternoon Image 5

Some of these images are hard to categorize. Is this "people and portraits", "animal and insect," or "cityscape and urban"? I think it's either or all three.

It doesn't look like I'm going to get a chance to respond to comments and view blogs until the weekend --so in the meantime, thanks to those of you who visit or leave comments.

Observing from West Cheshire, United Kingdom

Very nice..... but she should be paying more attention to her dog that is about to attacked ( I think).

@Observing: In spite of appearances there was no attack and no fighting. It was more like they were telling him, look at us, you're on a leash, but we're free.

Judy from Brooksville-Florida,, United States

To answer your good question ... because my mistress is otherwise occupied, I guess. ;D

@Judy: He did eventually get let off the leash.

Julian Kilsby from Birmingham, United Kingdom

A great moment, very well captured. Can't get enough dog shots.

@Julian Kilsby: Thanks. I need to take more shots of my own dog, but he considers me down low with a camera an invitation to play, and with him weighing in at about 135 lbs, picture taking becomes very difficult.

Zorilla from H, T & E, United Kingdom

Obviously those 2 dogs haven't been reading their George Orwell (four legs good, two legs bad).

All those comments and not one use of the word "bitch". Stunning restraint

@Zorilla: Well, Orwell certainly has a point. I feel about the same. One commenter did you the word "bitch."

danthro from Suburbia, United States

i'd go with 'lifestyle and culture'. the dog on the leash looks like he's ready to tell his owner to get off the cell phone, get into real life, and let him play

@danthro: I'm not a fan of cell phones or being subjected to their promiscuous use. He did eventually get let of the leash though.

Persian King from Tehran, Iran

Those two running toward that poor thing seem too vicious. He/she obviously wants non of them as a friend, lol.

@Persian King: You're misreading the situation. There were no fights. It was more like, hey, you're on a leash and we're free, ha ha ha. He did eventually get let off the leash to play.
