Stuart,

 

A great series. My wife wanted to adopt them until I explained they were wild animals and belong in the wild. They are magnificent animals and you photographed them well. Great framing, colors, lighting and sharpness

MN, Ernst, Dopaco, Paul, Michael, Virgil & Mark -

 

Thank you. It was also interesting to observe behaviors: grooming one another, howling which set off other packs howling, rolling and rubbing in what may have been the scent of a formerly living creature, nuzzling and mouthing one another.

Ece - Thank you.

 

Al - Thank you. No, not a zoo. It is a huge wolf reserve in weternmost New Jersey. The wolves are largely habituated to people, but given the opportunity you still wouldn't want to touch one.

Stuart,

 

Lovely series. I love the wild look, in the eyes, of the one standing (and reflected) in the water. It may be worthwhile to crop in on the head and shoulders (and the reflected image). Thank you for sharing these.

 

Best regards,

Robert

Fantastic!!! Yours and Dougs photos are excellent. I am contemplating purchasing a 180mm lens for my R. Just deciding on which one so that I can try to photograph some wildlife. I have never shot wildlife before. How the hell do you sneek up on these wolves????

Mike, Bob & Joachim -

 

Thank you. Wolves are exceptionally shy of people and it is very difficult to photograph them. Most of the wolves in these four packs are habituated to people and although in a huge reserve will not hide when people dare present.
