It’s Dogs vs. Fans in “Blow” by Illona of Scruffy Dog Photography

Written by: Phillip Mlynar

One hot and humid summer’s day, Ontario-based photographer Illona of Scruffy Dog Photography noticed how her dog Merrick’s hair was blowing dramatically in the air of a fan.

The image quickly inspired her to take the concept of canines facing off against fans and turn it into a cheerful photography project. She decided to call the series of snaps “Blow.”
