Dog humor

Oct 19 2026 | By: Jim Zuckerman Photography

I love pictures of dog humor, and I enjoy making them myself. This is a Maltese puppy I photographed against a black background. In Photoshop, I placed the puppy inside a traditional phone booth in the U.K. (there's not many of them left now). The challenge, of course, was retaining detail in the fine hair. To do this, I used the blend modes instead of a regular selection. When there is enough contrast -- such as white hair on black velvet -- the 'lighten' blend mode eliminates the black around each hair perfectly. It's really magic. What I was left with was full detail in the white hair, and the dark interior of the booth made the puppy's hair stand out nicely.
