Australia's Shelter Animals Get Professional Portraits

Now showing throughout Sydney Australia's bus shelters are posters of animals up for adoption. These aren't your typical pictures of homeless pets. These adorably cute animals have been shot by 21 of Australia's top photographers for a project called Limited Edition. Put on by Sydney Dogs and Cats Home, the creative project had each of the 21 photographers shoot three cats or dogs resulting in 63 one-off prints.

"The photographers were asked to bring out the personality of each animal. And just like the animals at the Home, each print is unique. All prints are signed 1 of 1 by the artist."

Watch this video to see the making of this project. You can bid on the 63 posters on eBay or adopt one of the dogs and cats from Sydney Dogs and Cats. (Animal lovers, don't you just want to adopt them all?)
