Steve,

Just a thought, my thoughts are not always logical!

I went back and looked at a few pages from your PAW collections.  You
shoot a lot of dogs from their level, or looking up at them.  You
shoot a kids from a low angle or from their point of view.  A lot of
your non kid looking up shots are shot with a wide angle, so I would
guess you also favor the compositions/line drama that you get with the
low angle/wide lens combo.
