21 分钟A few weeks ago, I met up with Elias Friedman in a park in Manhattan.
I brought my dog, Picasso, along with me.
Elias set us up on a bench to take our portrait.
Anywhere in the shade.
It could even be up on the bench here.
Sure.
That's easy.
All right, Picasso, you want to go back up here?
Elias is better known as the Doggist.
Oh, yeah, good boy.
For over a decade, he's made a career out of taking beautiful pictures of dogs, mostly around New York,
and posting them on social media.
On Instagram, Elias has 7.5 million followers.
Watching him work is kind of funny.
He holds a squeaky ball above the camera lens.
He squeals, howls, and grunts to get Picasso's attention.
These are some of the techniques Elias has honed over more than a decade of doing this.
So those are some good moves there.
You're moving your arm around.
Yeah.
