Dogs Waiting for Their Humans


This is a selection of photos from a series taken in and around my neighborhood in Brooklyn. So far they have been rejected by The New Yorker, McSweeney's, Time Out New York, Bark, and several other publications. To quote a rejection letter I received from a noted gift book publisher: ". . . Your photographs, though powerful, convey a sense of melancholy; the viewer tends to feel sorry for the dogs who have been left behind, if only temporarily."
