This is a photo of my Jack Russell named Skye.
After loosing my Yorkie , who had been my constant companion for 13 yrs, my husband surpised me by taking me to the dog rescue. It was just a couple of days before Christmas. When we looked through the cages, there sat Skye looking so sad and depressed. I told my husband that she was the one. We inquired about her and they said she wasn’t up for adoption yet. They needed to give the owners time for claiming her. They also told me that many people had inquired about her and when she did go up for adoption there would be a drawing of names to see who would get her. I prayed about it and felt like this was the dog for me and that I didn’t have to worry. Sure enough, the day after Christmas, she did go up for adoption and it was my name that was drawn from the “hat”. Now I have another “constant companion” and wouldn’t know how to get along without her.

“Congratulations on your wonderful feature in Still Life and Food Photography!”

    Now this is a dog with some incredible discipline. Or did she tie into the pie just after this was taken. Beautiful shot. Love the sepia atmosphere, really adds to the shot. Congrats!
