My most fantastic mentor would always challenge me (and others) to take a great photograph in our own backyard. I remember thinking, the backyard? That's not exotic. It's a backyard. This was and still is a fantastic challenge...how to frame, capture and inspire a moment that happens in everyday location. Yes, how do I make everyday a moment?

 

Fast forward to today's environment, where most of us are spending "quality" time at home. Does this give us a new opportunity to see what we have? Can we have have fun and create moments in our own backyard? I believe Hudson and Erwitt have answered that question. Yes, you can have fun, create a moment and don't forget to wash your paws.

 

PS-I can't say this is my best image but it does capture a moment that makes me smile.
