Ed Panar "Animals Who Saw Me"
2011
This image by photographer Ed Panar caught my attention because the raccoon is cute and because the bucket next to it is so bright! I also chose this image because I thought it was funny. By looking at this image, the story I depict is that the raccoon was caught misbehaving! The tilted flower pot on the bottom of the picture was most likely knocked over by the raccoon. It looks like the photographer took this picture at a high angle which might make the animal feel like he's in trouble because someone is towering over him.
This photograph is from a book called "Animals That Saw Me" by Ed Panar. The photographer's book if filled with pictures of animals that are looking directly into the camera. Five years later he released a second volume to this collection.
