Dog Photography: Not of dogs but taken by a dog

We recently started carrying these funky camera tripods in the Kodak Store called Gorillapods. You can bend the legs of this tripod to wrap around all sorts of things to get a good shot.
My mind started churning.
I knew what I wanted to stick the Gorillapod on.... my dog, Oscar. Just like it's interesting to get pictures taken from a child's point of view I wanted pictures from a dog's point of view. But they don't have thumbs. Thus, the Gorillapod.
I wrapped the Gorillapod with digital camera around Oscar's neck and collar, set the self timer and let him loose. (no pugs were harmed in the making of this post) I used one of my older cameras in case of a mishap.
Stop looking so pathetic.. it'll be fun! 
Granted, the majority of the pictures Oscar took were like this... blurriffic. But we persevered.
Other than his food bowl, this is probably the scene Oscar sees the most... us looking down at him.
Stewie is also a favorite subject of Oscar's.
I think this is going to catch on like wildfire and we are going to see exhibits from everyone's furry friends. Just like cats that paint!
Go to the Blog Gallery to see a few more pictures that Oscar took.

Comment: So did you catch Oscar each time and re set the timer? He seems much more tolerant than my dogs are. Neat idea though.

Comment: Very glad to learn about the gorilla pod! Don't think my dog wants to try it but I will. Hope it is okay to add that Weedon is entered in the competition for Cutest Dog in America and could use your votes this week: http://www.cutestdogcompetition.com/vote.cfm?h=47B6FF09F53EC246E16C9D52BF6C7165 He was on death row in a high-kill shelter in SC four months ago!

Comment: Jenny - great stuff, as usual - just stumbled upon your Photo Advent Calendar, which is really cool, and recognized you from flickr, where I've been a fan of your colorful photos in the past. Kendall - there's a GorillaPod SLR model, which holds my DSLR just fine, even with the zoom lens. I'm not one to lug a full tripod around on trips, so the GorillaPod is perfect for me. I've used it on beaches, fences, gravestones, machinery, tree branches, etc... but no live animals... yet!

Comment: What we need now is a night vision camera small enough for cats roaming the neighbourhood in the nighttime. The things we would learn. Comeon Kodak..!!

Comment: Strap one of the new camera phones on, set it on video and enjoy the results. Try tossing their favorite toy for them to catch, etc.
Posted By: Robin (2/20/2007)
Comment: Something similar has been done before by rescue personnel. Hoping to find trapped victims, they put video cameras on dogs and sent them into buildings or situations that weren't safe or easily accessible by humans. I am sure they saved a few lives, but a dog with a video camera can sometimes provide more crotch shots than a Sharon Stone movie!

Posted By: TheXtremeDude (2/17/2007)
Comment: I have to try this on my pet Gorilla...Sophie! I mean it is a Gorilla cam. I am worried about the safety of the camera. She likes to throw things and chew on new stuff. Oh well, we will see what happens.

Comment: What fun pictures. But (see comment below me) dogs aren't colorblind. They just don't see the complete spectrum like we do. They see blues, yellows, and grays.
Posted By: Erin (2/16/2007)
Comment: You should take the pics in black and white since they are color blind to make it more authentic...great pics by the way I love this idea
Posted By: Deborah (2/16/2007)
Comment: I love that idea. I got to have one of those Gorillapods. Oscar is a real cutie as is Stewie.
Posted By: John (1/9/2007)
Comment: I love this idea - I'd love to take it to the next step. A "voice-activated" shutter to snap photos when our dog saw something bark-worthy. Would have to have a camera with a fast shutter to minimize the blurriness!

Comment: I think its funny that there is the picture of Stewie. It makes me think that all Oscar does is stare at Stew and think about how good he would taste marinated in some hot sauce.
Posted By: mark (12/1/2006)
Comment: Great Idea. Very strategic and forward thinking. This takes something further. I'll have to try & put a camera on my kids like this. Anyone want to donate 6 digital cameras & tripods?
Posted By: Kathy Rauschenberg (11/30/2006)
Comment: This is fantastic! I love this and may try with my dog - also Oscar - although a miniature schnauzer. Thanks for sharing!
Posted By: Robbin (11/30/2006)
Comment: This clinches it! The puppy-cam is going ON the puppy!! I've seen the gorilla-pods but never thought to use it for the dog! (I had visions of a little miner-hat with the camera attached somehow :-) Thanks for a great idea, Jenny!

Comment: Greeting from Thailand! This is so cool! I wish you show us a few more of the pictures. He's lovely, Oscar that is. And Stevie. Imagination beyound boundary. Cheers

Comment: I also have a male pug. His name is Bunta. My wife and I are always curious what Bunta is seeing and how it looks. I will try what you did with Bunta!!

Comment: I love the dog's perspective! That never occurred to me. It's great to see what creative uses people can put our products to. To answer some questions: yes, we do have a gorillapod strong enough to hold SLR cameras. We have three versions which you can see at www.joby.com. The middle version can hold up to 1.75 pounds, the largest can support up to 6.5 pounds. And for you Canadians, you can find our products at Henry's, Black's, Vistek and the Source. Or you can order directly from our website where shipping is always free!

Comment: I bought my husband a cute portable tripod once, but he forgot that he forgot it had been a gift from me, and he referred to it as "that crappy little tripod". So in case he's reading this, he can buy his own Gorillapod, even though I think it' cool.
Posted By: Jennifer (11/29/2006)
Comment: I love this Jenny! Anyone know where we can get these tripods in Canada?

Comment: Anyone know if the Gorillapod is strong enough to hold an SLR?
Posted By: Sunny (11/29/2006)
Comment: This is awesome! I'm going to have to try it on our dog. I've also thought about putting a video camera on my dog when she's at home and we're gone during the day to see what kind of mischief she's up to. But that would take some pretty durable hardware.
