For this edition, we present six works selected from the countless submissions received from around the world.
Let’s discover these remarkable works, each animated by a distinct perspective and sensibility.

Dogs are ever-present companions in our everyday lives.
The exuberance of a sudden sprint, eyes narrowing sleepily, a gaze directed toward us—each unassuming gesture reveals something of an individual character and the life unfolding around it.

Between people and dogs lies a closeness that words alone cannot explain.
The paths we walk together, the patient silhouette waiting for us, the warmth of an unexpected moment side by side.

Photography can quietly preserve these subtle expressions of trust and affection.
What expression of “dog” have you discovered?

Whether encountered as a member of the family, a friend met while traveling, or a presence animating a street corner, show us a fleeting moment with a dog, framed through your own gaze.

Peering gently through the leaves, the dog embodies both a distinctly canine curiosity and a serene presence. Enveloped in deep green, the composition evokes a fleeting encounter in a miniature forest and suggests a quiet narrative. The contrast between the richly textured foliage filling the frame and the dog’s tender expression is beautifully rendered, drawing the viewer ever more deeply into the atmosphere of the scene.

The dog’s expression as it bounds through an expanse of snow, delighting in the experience with its entire body, is unforgettable. The broad field of white space heightens its buoyant energy, conveying a warm sense of joy even amid the cold. From the paws kicking up snow to the dusting of white around its muzzle, the work captures the radiance of a moment spent entirely absorbed in play.

The gaze of a dog reclining in a light-filled interior holds the gentle rhythm of domestic life. Framed at close range, its expression quietly conveys the reassurance of a companion who belongs at the heart of the family. Light and shadow falling across the ears and eyes lend intimacy and resonance to this otherwise unassuming moment of rest.

This endearing work captures a dog gazing toward the camera from a bicycle basket amid the urban landscape. A small glance emerging within the routines of everyday transit lends a note of gentle warmth to the city’s bustle. Together with the image’s film-like texture, the passing instant lingers like a fragment of a half-remembered memory.

The bold monochrome contrast brings the dog’s movement and the depth of the surrounding space vividly to the fore. Its slightly blurred gait and progression into the shadows create the lingering resonance of a scene recalled from memory. From the stillness of the storefront to the reflections on the floor, the work seems to capture time itself as the dog passes through.

Surrounded by multicolored flowers, the dog’s expression suffuses the entire frame with a radiant sense of happiness. The vivid flower field resonates with its almost smiling presence at the center, creating a work that seems to carry the gentle atmosphere of the season itself. Its small figure blends effortlessly into the blossoms, as though its delight in the world were reaching out to the viewer.

What did you think of these works?
Although “dog” is a familiar theme, it reveals entirely different expressions according to each photographer’s gaze. Beyond cuteness and vitality, the submitted works convey trust, warmth, moments of playful humor, and the quiet passage of time shared between people and dogs.

Discovering as-yet-unseen talent—new pieces—is the role we hope this project can fulfill. We hope it offers an opportunity for your creative expression to reach and resonate with an even wider audience.


We look forward to sharing the next theme with you.
