Charlotte firefighter Jeff Clark and Cinnamon, a pregnant red Doberman, gained international exposure with this photograph snapped by the Observer’s Patrick Schneider during a July 1999 house fire. Seen through wire services and the Internet, the picture has moved people around the world and is still a top reprint seller. —Charlotte Observer (2005)

This decade-old photograph isn’t displayed at the Charlotte Observer site, but their current photographers have portfolios available at the company’s photo department website.
