Life Imitating Art

and art imitating life...

Here's the backstory to this image, in case you are curious: I recently ordered and received some sample canvases for my pet photography business, and one of the samples is of Abby.  I had the sample on the landing on the stairs because it is really stunning (seriously - once you see one of these canvasses in person, you'll wonder how you ever lived without one - the canvas in only out of focus because the depth of field for this photo; the image on the canvas is very sharp and vibrant).  As I was puttering around this morning, Abby was in her usual position as sentinel on the stairs.  I suddenly realized she was in the same pose as in the portrait on the canvas, and of course, I grabbed the camera.
