How much is that doggie in the window?

Halfway through our raft trip, we stopped at a place called Second Camp for a delicious steak lunch. The raft guides actually live on this flat, sandy area on the banks of the river. Chico is the canine companion of one of those guides. He hung out on the beach, watching rafts come and go, and hoping someone would sneak him a piece of steak.

    He's too cute! I'm sure that face has earned him quite a bit of steak.

    That's one of the best pup portraits I've seen. And an environmental portrait at that. He looks to have a lot of character...

    He does seem concerned that you haven't left enough steak to feed a kitten, but looks beautiful. Is that citronella spray on his neck to stop barking, looks big.

    Actually, Ron, he was tied up with a strap that is usually used to secure overnight gear to a raft that has to bounce through rapids and into rocks. That's the buckle end hanging loose. No 'skeeters anywhere in sight (phew)!

    What a great angle to shoot him from, he looks like he's hoping you've got steak.

    Like the way you shot this! Looks like a nice doggie. If I were to go rafting, the camera and I would be in the water..

    How could anyone refuse a face like that! He's just too cute and your perspective looking down is perfect for capturing his longing.

    Chico is a doll. He looks like he's having a hard time keeping his eyes open!
