Reese is a houseguest for a week. Not having much else to do in the rain, he offered to sit for a portrait.
This old fella has cancer and recently had a tumor removed from his left side. Despite the hangdog look here, he is still happy go lucky and having a good time being part of the pack with our dog Maggie.
Strobist: 580 off-camera bounced rear and left with Demb fill card, tungsten spot on the background, large window to the left.
