"Big Bean" is a nickname for my golden retriever Brady's giant head. He's one of my favorite subjects, and I post a photo of him daily.

My ultimate dream is to retire to Maine and live off of Brady's earnings as an LL Bean catalog model. Alas, our decision to buy a house at the height of the real estate market means that Brady's modeling career will have to wait.

In the meantime, I'm always on the lookout for the colorful, the unusual, the unexpected. I try to shoot what nobody else standing near me would see. Some days I hit the jackpot, other days I delete every photo I take.
