The first rule of the DPP is don’t talk about the DPP.
Wait, scratch that.
The first rule of the DPP is… don’t leave your camera at home.
Seriously.
DON’T LEAVE YOUR CAMERA AT HOME. It is no good to you there.
Until it really kinda is.

Today I left my camera at home. I was all prepared to photograph my dentist, but somehow the notion of camera got shoved back behind 1) the desire to actually shower before going out in public and 2) my typical dentist office anxiety. However, I’d say things worked out well because, in the end, I snapped this image which I really love. On my way back into the house I saw the Morehead family coming home from lunch. After running in to grab my camera, I quickly snapped a few shots in the snow. Whew, I got my portrait for the day.

    I like this one, too. He looks like such a big boy.

    I love this! His eyes are striking. It leaves the viewer wondering what he looked back to see in the snow.

    This shot also reminds me a little of this one:

    which I’m also in love with.

    This is such a great picture. I love the contrast of his red coat with the earthy tones and snowfall.
