Poor thing! It shouldn't be left tied up outside in those type of temps, IMHO. You guys are like us. All our snow melted (except a few ugly grey snowbanks), and until a little dusting last night, our streets were bare. We had the same temps as you today (high of -10C-ish), but tonight it's going down to -25C with windchill warnings. Now I know that Wheatfield is sitting out there laughing at us wusses from the East, as they've just had a cold snap of -40C temps. Still, when the windchill gets down below -35C, I feel it. But I digress. Your photo! I think it's wonderful, Paul. I'm glad there are no visual cues as to how cold it is, because it is actually a really cute shot. Very well framed, I like the way he's between the two cars, with the sidewalk "framing" him diagonally. Very nice! I also like the look of eager anticipation on pooch's face - he's obviously looking and waiting for master. Lovely shot! cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
