Quit Your Job and Travel the World: How we did it and you can too!
Yesterday (November 19, 2014) Ian and I spent about two hours shooting some photos for my new travel blog for women, and I couldn’t resist taking a few animal shots while we were at it. Plus, Tiger (my dog) totally loved sitting in the suitcase! Isn’t he precious?
The above photo was taken with the Sony a6000 and Voigtlander 40mm f/1.4 Nokton. Continue reading “Shot of the Week: My Traveling Dog, Tiger (Los Angeles, USA)”
