The day before Blizzard Jonas blew into town, I posed my dogs on the steps of our deck, figuring I might have an opportunity for a Before and After comparison.
To create a good Before and After picture set, the photographer should be in the same position, with the same perspective. And the subjects should be arranged similarly.
Post-blizzard, digging a narrow path through nearly three feet of snow was about all we could manage, and don’t even ask about actually reaching — let alone clearing — the bottom step.
There was no room to sit pretty all lined up on the deck, and the only way I could get an After photo with the same perspective as the Before shot would have been to dig a Susan-sized ditch in a snow pile at the bottom of the stairs. The dogs and I discussed our options over treats.
I think the final result turned out just fine; don’t you?
Plus we got a bonus amusing outtake from the bunch. Can’t ask for more.
What’s in the air? Hope it’s not more snow.
Do you ever take photos of your pets for perspective or interest?
