When I'm posting my pictures on this blog, sometimes I'll think to myself, That's a pretty nice photo, or, That Photoshop filter worked out well, and sit around feeling cocky. And then I'll come across pictures taken by, you know, REAL photographers, and the gig is up. My tail goes straight between my legs.
I came across a link via Mean Eyed Cat to a terrific site called Shine Pet Photography and the work of Grace Chon, which led me to several others that are also doing really great, really professional work. Very inspiring. I shouldn't have any of their photos posted here, but I figured that since I don't make a single penny off this blog, and my only intent is to point out how great these people are, they probably won't sue me. Hopefully.
So enjoy these while you can.

Seth is the man behind the new and improved photos of West and South L.A. dogs on the L.A. Animal Services website. Thank god! He has spent time teaching LAAS volunteers basic photo skills, and facilitated the donation of photo equipment for the shelters to use. Plus, he's a nice guy.

I'm honored that you've included me in your list. Thanks. I can't speak for the others, but I personally have no problems with people using my images on their website as long as they link back to me and aren't selling my images for profit etc etc.
Thanks, Mia!
