I love when I come across work that just makes me smile and I want to keep looking over and over.  I in fact email myself the images so I have them on my iphone and can look at them at random times during the day.    I have followed the work of Tim Flach for years but some of the images from his most recent body of work called “Dogs Gods” are my favorites.  A few exhibit a painterly quality that I have seen in other photographers images but not quite to this effect or success.  I think part of this aesthetics comes from the light and not heavy retouching.  And who doesn’t love dogs?  Well, some people I suppose. .  .but they would probably still like these.
