Flickr Forum: May 23rd, 2008 - Pets
The blogTO Flickr Forum is a weekly sampling of themed photographs taken by Torontonians and aims to not only feature the talent they possess, but also spur dialogue and reveal the stories behind the images.

Today's collection of Toronto photographs is made up of responses to our call for photos that fit the theme "PETS" or "PET". These images were all recently submitted to the blogTO Flickr pool.

To the photographers: we'd love to hear about your photos. A little info on where it was taken and the story behind the photo is always a great start.

To the rest of you, feel free to ask questions to the artists, submit photos to the blogTO Flickr pool for next week's consideration, or just sit back and enjoy our weekly mosaic.

Continue for links to larger versions, and to check out the next theme.

1. bingo's cone
2. Beta hugs
3. Menagerie Mascot

4. Spot The Critic
5. The Island of Doctor Moreau
6. False Reflection

7. yawning angel
8. Sad Pug Puppy
9. Lola Felina

The next theme is "GOLD", and as always, is open to creative interpretation. We're looking forward to featuring some of your images again, on May 30th.

To be considered for next week's selections:
- In Flickr, add the tag "GOLD"
- Add to the blogTO Flickr pool
- If you have a photo already in the pool, and you would like it to be considered, remove the photo from the pool and re-add it. Only photos added in the past week will be considered.

If you have a theme suggestion, feel free to leave a comment.

Thanks for choosing my photo! (I'm #7, yawning angel.) The photo is of my six year old pug, Merry, who is really the reason I learned to take photos in the first place. I was looking for a way to add daily content to my company's website (shameless plug - www.pamperedpuppy.com) and decided to try a daily photoblog of the pug! For the first year or two, that's all I shot - which is when I learned that shooting the same thing over and over lets you really get good at something! I upgraded to full SLR last year and now am truly addicted to photography... all thanks to the little furball in that picture. :)

Haha, Beta is going to get stopped even more on the streets of Toronto now. Way to go little guy.

Thanks for choosing my image (#4-Spot The Critic). This was one of those moments where you stumble onto a really cool scene just begging to be shot.
As usual there's some great content here; kudos to all the other photographers.

Thanks for including my portrait of our youngest Pug.(8. Sad Pug Puppy). His name is Mack and he always manages to look so sad and neglected and I couldn't resist taking a few shots of this moment. I can assure you he has no reason to be sad....

How about using some of those dogs for the Toronto Portraits feature?
