Not my dog, but my mother-in-law’s neighbor’s dog. This is Miss Sally and she is a bundle of energy. I was amazed to catch her in a moment where she was actually sort of standing still. She is known for running at break-neck-speed out the door and heading straight for Mom’s place. She often goes for excursions around the neighborhood and eventually returns home. In this photo she is showing off her amaing ability to completely cover her nose with her tongue. Photo from October 2009.

Hello…I’m Yvonne. I’m a graphic designer who discovered a love for photography when my hubby gave me a point-and-shoot back in 2003. Several cameras and lenses later, I’m now using a Nikon D300. I have been showing my work locally (Lebanon, PA) and am always looking for new exhibition opportunities. I hope you enjoy my work. Please feel free to leave comments. I also love hearing about photo-op hidden treasures in the Central PA area.

    Precious baby, my dog has this same tongue too, so funny! I have a Shih Tzu and one half Shih Tzu, aren’t they just so precious?

  • Viv…Sally’s a total trip. I wish I had her energy. We just got to meet her and chase her down when visiting relatives in TX last year.
    She made a big impression!
