It’s been 3 1/2 years since I took this picture, and it’s still one of my absolute favorites! Back when Utah was just a wee pup, I fed him this flower and he held it in his mouth smiling…it was picture perfect. This image was the first thing that came to my mind when I heard this week’s theme was going to be “Noses.” But, I didn’t want to just throw up an old photo, so I got the genius idea to recreate it!


Here’s Utah 3 1/2 years later (they grow up so fast!) attempting the same pose. I think they only thing that’s changed in that time is the size of his body. This guy cracks me up every time I photograph him. He never leaves me without a “oh, so cute” image. I ♥ my lil’ buddy!




Sniff your way around the Project 52 blog link circle to see some more noses…starting with Peggy Mundell at Dog Breedz.
