IT'S RAINING DOGS

WITH THE WIND blowing through their fur, you'll believe a dog can fly in these hilarious images. From huskies to beagles, German photographer and dog lover Julia Christe captured a host of pups in mid-flight. The dogs are dropped onto a mattress from the arms of their off-camera owners, with the pups pulling their best mid-air pose for the cameras, showing off their finest ‘vogue’ faces. Photographer Julia wanted to capture her favourite animal from an unlikely perspective.
