Dog Misha... Travel Portrait from Belarus




 While traveling to Belarus, I visited Mir castle.  Outside castle walls, behind souvenir shops, I noticed what looked like a sculpture of black horse and a dog sitting on the back of the horse.  When the horse moved to grab some grass, I realized that both horse and a dog on the top of it were real animals.  Dog was sitting still, rarely reacting to tourists passing by.  Little boy, the owner of this attraction, was offering a horse ride for a small fee.  When I got close to photograph this strange duo, I was amazed with dogs eyes: it reminded me of sad human eyes, understanding and coping with reality.
