Winner, 2020 CommArts Photography Annual. As a National Geographic photographer, taking pictures of lions, tigers, and bears was a regular day's work for Vincent Musi, but in 2017 he gave himself a new challenge: dogs. Using the same lighting and photographic techniques he uses for his National Geographic photography, Musi spent a year shooting portraits of dogs. From a farting bulldog to a Labrador that likes opera, he chronicled the character and personality of everyday dogs. The Year of the Dogs features over 100 dogs with close-ups, profiles, and full body shots along with a narrative about each dog. The Year of the Dogs will be the go-to gift book for dog lovers of the holiday season.
