Panabasis Photo helps me satisfy my urge to post photos - mainly my own, but the occasional vintage image from my collection, too. When I get the craving to post cat photos, I do it at The Circle Cat Club.
I post other photos, and from time to time actually have something to say, over at Panabasis.
Signed copies are also available.
More Photos - Less Talk

I don't know what I admire most about the photographer - that he got the dog to sit so well for the camera or that he could balance a child of that age on the stump so well - and the fact that he got a good shot of them both together.
Yes, it's a virtuoso performance, jar. Have a look at this tintype for another fine early dog shot - everything perfectly still, except for the slightly vibrating tongue...
From the looks of the dog's owner, and that stiff arm of his, I'd say he has a VERY powerful hold on the back of this dog's neck -- and probably a not-too-sweet history of how to control an animal. Not a pretty picture, but a nice dog.
