Giving the Paw

The idea for this weekend's challenge was to find an unusual POV and take a candid shot of your family or pets (at least that's my reading of it. For this, I stood on the stairs and took some pics of my son playing with Fudge. The alternative of getting a low down POV seemed destined to result in my lens being covered in dog slobber.
