They say people end up looking like their pets

Colin, they not only look alike they have the same posture/attitude. This is really funny. Also I note how well you have made your subjects stand out from the crowd both in your lighting and with this DOF. Well done Colin...

From the thumpnail I wondered what interest that could present. Now I see your point. Very good observation... particularly the hands!... And I agree with David about the dof and the contrast in tone between fore and back.

LOL, this is funny. My, they could be brothers! Same expression. Anather very original capture.

Funny and with great technique in B&W. Well done.

Hello Colin, I hadn't seen the title as this loaded, but I immediately thought "dogs and their masters..."

 

Very nice observation.

 

Thanks for looking at my Tiger Moth, it may go into critique only at some point.

 

Peter

Thanks everyone! When I saw this guy I was amazed at how alike he and his dog were. Just had to see if I could catch the likeness!

 

David, manolis, the DOF and contrast are 'assisted' with PS and I also had to remove someone standing behind him (in PS naturally!)

Great eye, Colin! The image and the caption both figure well!! I keep finding other little details that make the man and his dog alike.

Colin, A big smile brought me that scene... how well the caption is, the dark bg. accentuate the couple...very nicely observed. Pnina

Colin, my goodness, before I noticed the caption, the first thought I had was that. Great humour to the shot and nice toning.

Excellent candid photograph and apt caption,Colin:-)

ha ha.. ha ha so it is true that owners are similar to their pets ha ha superb! This is a great proof ha ha !!!

Biliana

haha ...nice one.

Street work too....you ave it all.

 

well done.

 

!

Thanks Lou Ann, Pnina, Amar, Amal, Biliana, Denis, Ognian - I'm glad you liked the joke. I got the impression the guy knew what effect his appearance had and was playing up to it.

It's not often that a picture makes me chuckle but this one did. Makes you wonder how people choose their pet :-))

This is great Colin ... did also pull the big smile from me. Now I just wonder how the wife is looking.......... Very well executed.

His lean... definitely his forward lean. What a stance.

Kim, Bente, glad it made you laugh. Could not see his wife.

 

Stephen,..hmm,yes...I wonder how he does that?

hey bubba, not bad! not bad at all!

Very well seen within the street activities,outstanding.The dog must make him,like himself.

This guy certainly looks just as tenacious as his canine friend, but would have been a tight fit in the cockpit of a Spitfire during the Battle of Britain. The British Bulldog incarnate in both incarnations. Winston Churchill was the archetype of that, although even uglier than the bulldog if that is possible. Good eye as usual Colin.

Great capture !

Well seen, great capture and nice title ;-)

 

Cheers

Gave me a big laugh! Thank you!
