Today is the day that many people recognize as Star Wars Day (“May the fourth be with youâ€). To celebrate the occasion, members of the costuming group in Canada known as the 501st Legion: Capital City Garrison decided to volunteer some time for a special photo shoot to help get homeless animals adopted.
A number of the group’s members posed with bunnies, guinea pigs, dogs, and cats found at the Ottawa Humane Society shelter for a series of strange and heartwarming photos.

Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
