Many photographers have a muse. A person who inspires them to create works of art. I don’t know if Sam qualifies as a true muse, but he needs a couple of walks a day. When  he is getting into trouble around the house it is time to take hime out for a good run, and what better place then the beach in winter. Taking Sam for these beach runs gets me out of the house. On these trips I try to bring a camera. Sam loves to run, and will run back and forth on the sand. Many times he will run right into a photo ruining the composition with his foot prints, eager smile, or both. I have countless photos of Sam’s dog prints. One day it might be fun to have an exhibit of his footprints. I felt as a good assistant he deserved his credit, and wanted to share his happy face with others. Thanks
