Type and Size

West Cliff is full of dogs with personality, and this one appears to have been asked to pose nicely among the flowers.

Picture Perfect captures that familiar moment when everything looks beautiful from behind the camera, even if the subject isn't quite as impressed.

Artwork Story

The ice plants along the Santa Cruz coast are beautiful when they bloom. Bright flowers, ocean views, perfect place for a picture.

Unless you're the dog sitting in them.

He seems willing to cooperate, but that head tilt makes me wonder what he's thinking. Probably something along the lines of, “These flowers are scratchy. Are we done yet?”

Sometimes picture perfect depends on which side of the camera you're on.
