The Year of the DogsThe Year of the Dogs

"National Geographic photographer Vincent Musi is used to photographing bears, elephants, tigers, lions, sheep, and pigs, but dared to try something wild and crazy: dogs. With The Unleashed Studio, he invites friends and neighbors to bring in their canine companions (but no owners allowed) where he captures their beauty, spirit, and personality using the same lighting and photographic techniques that he does for National Geographic. The results are exquisite-arresting close-ups that dignify each dog with grace and humor. In this book, Vincent includes 3 to 4 engaging and utterly striking photos of about 75 dogs against a dark background along with a descriptive and entertaining narrative about each dog. Their individuality shines through in every portrait, and the dogs spring to life"--Provided by publisher.
