i could have sworn i commented on this one already, the eye contact is simply amazing, im sure you both were wondering what the next would do, the focus and catchlight in it’s eyes…excellent
Hi, thanks for comenting my work…I really enjoy yours as well…As per the zoom, all I had at that time was 70-300mm from Sigma, and that little boy was at about 10 feet awzy from me, of course I was comfortably sitted in my trcu…If you look carefuly in his eyes, you will see the reflection of the truck… That wolf was not scared of human at all, and that is what caused him his death…
Wow an absolutely amazing shot Frank. Black wolfs are very rare in my area of Canada, though there was one found about an hour away from where i reside. That was the first siting in over 40 years. Amazing shot
Well, hopefully you were using one of your ultra-telephoto lenses for this one. It looks too close for comfort to me. Excellent capture. Also thanks for the comments and favoritings. Much appreciated.
Great shot Frank – love the composition – loks like you do have some great nature around where you work – lucky you I work in the centre of the financial district in London :o) you have some great sunsets too.
Thanks David…I was comfortably seated in my truck, with the window down, he was at between 6 and 10 feet from the truck, an dI had a 300mm lens, wide open…Just a lucky day!!!
I used to get excited when I saw a white tail deer crossing the road..LOL I just can’t imagine capturing this in the wild, kudos to you Frank. I read above you said he wasn’t afraid of humans, which is what got him killed.. what happened to him?
