[Animals] Catspreading 'Big Boss' among finalists of Comedy Pet Photography Awards

[BirSaNN]

Here are the semi-finalists for the Comedy Pet Photography Awards 2023.

Countless pet owners claim that their dog or cat is the funniest animal on the planet. And those assertions might actually not be too far from the truth, as evidenced by the 2023 finalists of the Comedy Pet Photography Awards. From a poodle flying through the air to a kitty sticking its tongue out to the camera, house pet hijinks have reached a whole new level.

The winners of the contest will be announced August 11. 

A life changing event

Alex is the shy one. Max is the playful one. Together they form a lethally cute duo. I had more fun taking photos of these two than during my most adventurous wildlife photography trips.

 

In March 2019 I sat in the dog run in Union Square in New York City when I spotted a lady with a pink bag on her hand (to keep her hand clean) throwing a ball to her dog, which sat facing her. The dog then launched itself and flipped in midair to face me and snap! As you can see, the lady with her hand on her head was as surprised as me and I think she is saying "phew." I have searched in vain via the New York media to find the owner so that I can send her a copy. No [luck], so I'm hoping this Pet Comedy competition can help me find the mystery woman and her leaping dog. You never know!
