TL here is my next photo from the wolf series.

Today you meet Renki...another marvelous male wolf.
Remember, he loves patting, and likes to push objects.
Once he knows and trust you a little ..you are an object for him, and he'll push you with all his force from his back on your back ...

Even sometimes he will just lean on you with all his weight...somewhat 120 pounds.

Wolves are not afraid of water.
They are hunters...so fish, water ducks, beaver .. etc. serves as a little snack for them.
They go in the water and catch whatever pray comes across.

Here we see Renki and he catched something .. from the water...may be a little fish...frog.. we just don't know.
This is his one of his expressions after he had that little snack or quick bite.

What we can observe here .. it was definitely tasty for him (*_*)
Thanks for stopping bye .
Have a good weekend .. I will try to find some books on wolves in a booskstore

Hi Vandana,
This is a great shot, the details, eye contact, pose and POV are superb, I am a little worried that he might be licking his lips thinking you could be the next item on the menu though LOL, then you wouldn't have been able to share this wonderful animal with us so I guess not.
Well done
Regards Andy

Bonjour Vandana
What I like most in that picture is te movement created by his right front paw and the attitude of the wolf licking his lips. Good detail of the face but I dont like the way he looks at you . Nice color of the fur and good closeup. Bravo

Hey Vandana,

Did I miss something here, where is little Red Ridinghood gone - swallowed by a wolf or rescued by a hunter? Did you by change have something red to wrap around your head?
Okay, I have seen and enjoyed that one.

This one - absolutely lovely, that smug satisfied expression of Renki and the way he wades through the undeep water. A beautiful and detailed picture of your adventure.
Fantastic!

Mmm... yes, that tongue says it all. Nice animal, Vandana, and very well captured. The light is a bit dim, a bit of sun would have been lovely... but that would have posed different problems with bright spots, I guess.
I like the picture, it has a very good compo too. I don't understand the angle you used for the drop shadow of the frame, though... to me it looks a bit weird like this.

Hi Vandana,
Nice shot,
Renki is in great pose,
