Here's what Fran Hurcomb's cat Leo does all day. Fran attached a camera around Leo, and let him wonder around Old Town, Yellowknife.
I don't mean to marvel at the artist that Leo is, like those elephants who can paint with their trunks. But Leo does have a good eye, at least once in a while!
I don't think a dog would "take" the kinds of pictures that Leo does. Dogs seem too agitated and mobile, and when they're not moving, they're lounging about without much regard for their surroundings.
Many of Leo's pictures are taken on the move. But there are some shots where I can imagine him sitting in that calm, serene way that cats have, observing his surroundings, and being very particular at what he thinks is worth looking at (and photographing) and what isn't.
Leo's camera is around his neck, so the images that we see are lower than Leo's eye-level. But, given that minor imprecision, Leo's photographs have been displayed at the town's gallery.
Leo's images can be viewed here.
