September 25th, 2009

Hello!

Many of you from Twitter have commented on how Dogopolis’ photos looks nice and professional, and have asked me about the camera that I use etc.  Most of the time I use a Digital SLR but I also take a lot of the photos with  my iPhone camera. I would agree that a good camera enhances the quality of the image, but there are other things that you can do to get a great photo of your dog, even if you don’t have a fancy schmancy DSLR.

Last night some bum outside my house was rustling through the trash and I kept on barking at him but he would not stop… not a good night sleep. This morning I didn’t feel like getting out of the Big Bed.  But alas, I was picked up and put on the floor.

My legs were too stubby to jump back up, so that sucks. I decided that if my mom was going to be rude to me like that, i’m going to sleep next to her office door so she can’t get out of the room. Hahah! I win!
