Kodak Moment
"Wolves are mirror images of our soul"

"Wolf is the Grand Teacher. Wolf is the sage, who after many winters upon the sacred path and seeking the ways of wisdom, returns to share new knowledge with the tribe. Wolf is both the radical and the traditional in the same breath. When the Wolf walks by you - you will remember." ~ Robert Ghost Wolf
"The wolf is neither man's competitor nor his enemy. He is a fellow creature with whom the earth must be shared." ~ L. David Mech

Another great shot - this looks like the wolf is modeling for you in this photograph! Great work!

@Scott Schilling: Yes, he was a wonderful model, as long as I didn't try to tell him what to do. ;-) Thank you.

Charmed photo, he appears to be on their guard by the intense gaze that simultaneously inspires respect! Nice job on a beautiful wolf!

Another fine example of the "wold" in this series. I think it's marvelous that you could get so many successful shots of this animal.

@Don: Thanks. I have about 3 more, then plan to move on to other things. There were several, and each one had his own "look" and personality.
@JanW: Glad you like it.
