#Dogs Trying To Catch Treats In Mid-Air #photography [#geekgirl]

German photographer Christian Vieler is back with more hilarious photos of dogs trying to catch treats (see previous Bored Panda post here). The photographer captures the precise moment right before a dog gets – or misses- a treat thrown in the air, and the expressions of pooches, ranging from exuberance to confusion, are nothing short of epic.

“Every shoot I am looking for that specific moment when the dog is looking as cute or funny as they can be,” – Vieler told Bored Panda. “That cannot be seen without the power of freezing motion – dog’s faces with magnificent lineaments, telling us stories of panic, desire and joy.”

Vieler, who is also a journalist, has been taking pictures of dogs since 2012, the year he purchased a new camera. “I shoot a snapshot with every dog-guest in my studio. Some are pretty good, some not and a few are really gorgeous.”

#Heart of a #Dog a #film by Laurie Anderson #trailer [#geekgirl]

An impressionistic and musical meditation on a pets death with prelude by the artist Laurie Anderson, who enjoyed a very deep relationship with her dog, with following soundtrack.

The fact that Heart of a Dog is about her dearly departed rat terrier Lolabelle might surprise some – although her late husband Lou Reed does have the last word on the album, which ranges from incredible revelations about her childhood, to the chill of the modern surveillance state, to the mystical depths of the Tibetan Book of the Dead.

“Spellbinding. Smart, silly, sad, and relentlessly honest- one of the most moving and provocative films you’ll see this year.”- New York Magazine

Wildly inventive.. philosophically astute, emotionally charged.”- New York Times
