Dalmatians are perhaps best known for their role as fire-fighting apparatus escorts and firehouse mascots. Since Dalmatians and horses are very compatible, the dogs were easily trained to run in front of the carriages to help clear a path and quickly guide the horses and firefighters to the fires. Dalmatians are often considered to make good watchdogs, and they may have been useful to fire brigades as guard dogs to protect a firehouse and its equipment. Fire engines used to be drawn by fast and powerful horses, a tempting target for thieves, so Dalmatians were kept in the firehouse as deterrence to theft.

Photography allows one to capture a single moment in time. Yes, its cliche, but its real. A life can change in but a single moment. My photography is intended to inspire, to sometimes provoke thought, to see beauty in the simplest of things. PLEASE NOTE: WATERMARKS DO NOT APPEAR ON THE 'SOLD' ITEM!
