Maddie the Coonhound. A Beautiful Dog On, In and Around Things Across America. 33 Photos!






Be prepared to be enchanted by Maddie The Coonhound, a super serious project about dogs and physics.





Commercial Photographer Theron Humphrey of Atlanta, GA is a visual storyteller with a wonderful portfolio that captures the spirit of America with his images and portraits.




One of his projects for This Wild Idea, a group of people who document their travels across America with daily photographic journals, features a loveable looking coonhound named Maddie on top of things, literally.







Wonderfully composed photos from all across the country with this beautiful dog, balancing, posing and punctuating places in America.

At the time of this article, 91 photos (11 pages of images on tumblr) have been posted, with new ones appearing almost every day. And I just can't get enough of them.

It's begging to become a book and I'm sure it will be. Until then, the beautiful images are available to purchase as prints.

Shake, Shake, Shake. Dogs In Motion Caught by Pet Photographer Carli Davidson.




Pet photographer Carli Davidson of Portland, Oregon will take portraits of you and your pet, be it a dog, cat, goat or even an armadillo. Like many pet photographers, she will shoot them with and without their owners and is more than capable of capturing the special bond between human and animal. While the portraits are nice, it's her series "Shake" that's really worth sharing.



In black and white and color photos, Davidson captures dogs shaking their heads. Ears flying, foam flinging and fur all a frenzy. The distorted expressions - half-grimace, half-smile - are familiar to many a dog owner, but when caught with a camera are truly mesmerizing:
