Tennis ball launcher (for dogs)

November 18, 2009 @ 1:29 am

Likecool posted this tennis ball launcher today that’s made to hold 4 tennis balls ready for launch while playing with your dog (or pet that can fetch).

The tennis ball launcher costs about $40 USD and can launch up to 4 tennis balls in a row at a distance of up to 200 feet. Not bad. I bet Joey would like this.

Designer Liron Tzanhany is the creative mind behind the INU YOCHI Dog Pod, a pit-like bed for dogs and animals who like to sleep on top of a ruffled mess.

Joey, this one’s for you!

Dogs 101: Labrador from Jordy on Vimeo.

Here’s a segment from Animal Planet about Labrador Retrievers. Watching this video makes me never want to have any other breed of dog except Labradors and I’m glad Joey is a Labrador.

Thanks for the video, Simon!

Happy birthday Joey!

On this day every year, Joey turns one year older. Happy birthday boy!

A Polaroid for old time’s sake

October 16, 2009 @ 6:31 pm

First of all, a big thank you goes out to Chris of Perennial Media who kindly purchased a pack of Polaroid 600 for me to play with after I had mentioned that I had received a Polaroid Sun 600 camera.

I had to wait a bit to receive the pack because apparently (and I didn’t know this) the price of a pack of Polaroid fluctuates like mad. One day it’ll be about $30 and the next it will literally jump to about $80. I’ve never seen a product go through so many price changes in one week. But thankfully, it’s finally here, and I’ll say that it’s a bit fun and challenging to try and find 10 things to shoot without feeling like you’re wasting the film. It’s been so long since I’ve shot any sort of film that this feeling is once again new to me.

I’ll post all 10 photos once I get them all shot.

Joey is the most cooperative model I’ve ever shot and I think that’s why I like taking photos of him.
