My mother-in-law joined us for the middle 10 days or so of a three week trip (I know, this is strange.) We went to the Eiffel Tower and I was taking photos from various angles, and I looked over at her, and she was walking around the grassy park taking pictures of dogs, explaining that why would anyone look at the Eiffel Tower when there are dogs around.<BR/><BR/>THe next day we drove to Dijon, and instead of admiring the quaint buildings with artistically patterned, multi-colored tiled roofs, she was taking pictures of dogs on the other side of the street -- without a telephoto lens.<BR/><BR/>The next day, at the beautiful lakefront park in Geneva, she ignored the beauty of the lake and mountains and the charm of the town. She was too busy walking around the park following every dog with her camera. The next day, we began a week in Monaco, and the dogs there are undoubtedly the best kept dogs on the planet.<BR/><BR/>At that point I decided that as long as it was inevitable that she would take dog pictures whenever she travels, I might as well accept the challenge of trying to take good dog pictures for her. It has become such a habit that when we travel, friends traveling with us start pointing out dogs for me to photograph.<BR/><BR/>You can imagine her delight when, years later, the Riviera Dogs Daily Photo website started up. <BR/><BR/>DavidDave-CostaRicaDailyPhoto.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02567583999945259422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486504529519277316.post-17115909079969024982008-06-23T15:06:00.000-07:002008-06-23T15:06:00.000-07:00David!

There will be some additional dog photos in the future, as the dogs love the beach.<BR/><BR/>When traveling with my mother-in-law, who has three dogs, I was amused that in the most dazzling of sights in Europe, she would be ignoring the world's great landmarks that we had come there to see, and she would be taking pictures of whatever dogs were in the area. So I also started to take dog pictures to give to her, in part because it was painful to look at her pictures, taken with a camera without a telephoto lens sufficient for the purpose. <BR/><BR/>She now has several photo albums of pictures I have given her of dogs around the world. My objective is to get one picture shat shows the dog in its location that makes it apparent that the location is a foreign country, and to take a close-up picture of the same dog. She checks the Riviera Dogs Daily Photo site religiously.Dave-CostaRicaDailyPhoto.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02567583999945259422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486504529519277316.post-30821754609424005892008-06-22T22:22:00.000-07:002008-06-22T22:22:00.000-07:00I tracked you over from Riveria Dogs and thought -...I tracked you over from Riveria Dogs and thought - hey!
