Hello Vandana
I had the luck of visiting a wolf breeding farm in Alaska where I got to pet several of the wolves. Contrary to what people think wolves are gentle.
Its a great shot of the wolf and surroundings and I find you very lucky to be able to take these photo shoots.

Hey - no frame! And I love it!
Because you have a very string subject here, Vandana... and a perfect portrait. I love the low PoV, you were even under his own height, so he's looking down on you.
He does look strong. Thanks for the bonus shot, I think I like it as much as this one, if not better.
My compliments!

Yes Vandana, I can see the hair in his neck is standing up - a good thing that you had instructions first, so as to know the mood they are in. With cats I know what to watch for - but wolves are quite a different story.
Great picture of Wotan!
Love reading your notes on the wolves.

Again it is so perfect, Vandana. I love that you have educated us on how the body language is so important. I have to admit though,, even knowing what you have said, this posture would intimidate me. I have a healthy respect for wild animals. He is just so beautiful and you have done the beauty so much justice. Excellent.

Your wolf series are very interesting, and not only, from little I've seen so far from your gallery...promise to take a better look.
Excellent capture of different textures and earthly tones. This version is far more expressive than the ws version, in my opinion, but both are very well taken!
TFS!

Hi Vandana
I share the same passion as you seem to...Wolfs. Infact thats why i have a German Sheperd because she resembles a wolf.

Beautiful colours in this shot. He seems to blend very well with the surrounding hues.
Great Shot...(as always)

Take Care

Hi Vandana,
I had almost close my window seeing the intriguing eye contact (That was the best part of this shot). Wotan looked very serious with his expression here. I was relieved, he made me feel easier with his pose and expression in posted WS.

I envy you Vandana :)- for having such a very interesting wild life shooting experiences with those wolves. Thank you very much for sharing us those shots.
Regards,
Ramdan.

Hi Vandana
What a great picture! You did well to get so close and the POV is excellent too, I especially like the low angle. Your pictures in this series are all remarkable, you seem to have an affinity with these magnificent animals. This fella looks lean and mean, perhaps you're right about him becoming the next leader of the pack.
Well done!
Best wishes

And this is where his name came from (old Indo-European cultures): Wotan is also the god Odin's name in Wagner's Ring of the Nibelungen. A truly royal name, and I would agree that with a name like that he'd soon emerge the Alpha Male in the pack.

Great experience you had here. Yes, he has a funny expression -- well captured. I like the photo in the WS even better -- mostly because of the sun lighting his fur and his eyes are in even better focus. The water is more special than solid ground too. Just my opinion. TFS. K2
