[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Arctic Wolves, like all wolves, hunt in packs; they mostly prey on Caribou and musk oxen, but will also kill Arctic Hares, and lemmings, as well as other smaller animals. Due to the scarcity of grazing plants, they roam large areas to find prey up to and beyond 2600 km² (1000 square miles), and they will follow migrating Caribou south during the winter.

Their colors can vary from red, gray, white and black.

Hi Annick

An excellent 'in your face' capture of this arctic wolf. Am I right that these wolves are versicoloured thereby changing colour at winter time and that this one is still intermediate, or is it only the arctic fox that does this?

I like the close crop and the vertical frame. A little more light in the eyes would have done wonders, but the colours, details, BG, and overall exposure are just fine.

Good work and TFS.
Regards
Loot

Hello Annick,
You are making a stunning mammal's colection!
I like so much this presentation of the Artic Wolf, wich I haven't seen before.
Great POV used in this protrait, good details on the animal's fur, and the dark and blurred background makes a nice contrast with the subject.
Well done, and happy holidays for you and your family!

Hi Annick

What a perfect portrait! (i hardly use the word "perfect"...but it fits here :) )
The full-frontal POV is excellent and the details throughtout are awsome.
Also the DOF is exceptional, the exposure impeccable, and the contrast between the darkeyes adn teh white fur is GREAT!
Simply wonderful work!

Bravo, TFS and Happy Holidays, my friend!
