One of the key lessons to learn for a Brit living in Spain is that Spanish dogs hate foreigners. I can hardly count the times on my year abroad that I’ve been chased down the street by a xenophobic dog, probably enraged by my sunburnt face and the lingering scent of PG Tips.
Luckily for me, Spaniards seem to have a fondness for small dogs (I’ve seen several men built like rugby players taking their Chihuahuas for walks). Although this only makes it more embarrassing if you turn and run when faced with an angry mutt.
So when I found Seth Casteel’s photos of “hilariously ferocious underwater dogs” I was in familiar territory. Using only a high speed camera and a tennis ball, Casteel has captured the moment at which dogs enter the water, chasing the ball. Xenophobia of Spanish pooches aside, the result is very funny.
OK, this is really quite bizarre. In fact, I’m still struggling to understand it. People will try and pass all sorts of things off as art: graffiti, unmade beds, whatever. But I have never before heard of people collecting bird droppings to be displayed and sold (for prices of up to $6,000) in art galleries.
