AIR OF THE DOG: HILARIOUS FLYING POOCHES

FLYING through the air, these delighted pooches pull their best poses mid-flight. From a Cocker Spaniel to a Pomeranian, the adorable dogs feel the wind in their fur as they show off their moves for the camera. The hilarious photographs were captured by German photographer Julia Christe in a studio in Berlin, after she decided to capture her favourite animal from an unlikely perspective. Dropped from their owners' arms onto a thick mattress, they excitedly fall through the air whilst displaying comical facial expressions.
