Statement:
Even as a cat person I have to accept the common truism that “a dog is man’s best friend”. I might add that dogs are also photographers’ best friends – every picture lights up if there’s a canine in the frame. On a gloomy day on Houston Street (NYC) back in the 80’s this little encounter surely made me smile.
