"Who is Norman?"
Voices: English for Secondary School
Not many Australian Old English Sheepdogs have a feature page in a
Swiss English high school text book.
But Norman does.
These 25 photos chart his loyalty, friendship and never-ending quest
for snacks over a year in the photographer's life.
Norman is every dog.
Norman is hungry.
Norman is just like you and me.
About the Author

I'm a freelance photographer working out of Sydney, Australia. I live in Summer Hill which is in the Inner West of Sydney, home of five thousand take away Indian and Thai restaurants. My wife and I have two gorgeous girls and one loving dog, Norman. You might have heard of him? He was featured in a Swiss English for High School text book. The internet is a weird place.
I take lot of photos. I look forward to the day when I'm long gone and my relatives can no longer open the archaic file formats and just decide to delete them.
