Today was my second wolf photo session. It poured rain here yesterday, so not only was there no snow, there was mud. (That's really apparent in some of my Apache shots.) Frustratingly, it was gorgeously sunny as I drove up there - until about five minutes before I arrived. And it stayed overcast for the rest of the afternoon. Grrrr. It was a bit warmer than last time, though, and this time there were no wankers. Yay! I also got a glimpse of one of the red wolves today, which was kind of cool.
Since I mostly got shots of the pack last time, today I spent over an hour shooting Atka, and I was rewarded with some nice shots. So here he is, in all his furry glory.
Prepare for lots and lots of white wolf photos. (And I'm not kidding about the "lots and lots" part.)
























Stinkin' tree!

While I'm on the subject of white wolves, here's Apache.

Life is tough. *g*


Here's Apache with Kyla.

And Kyla on her own.



Finally, Lucas of the blue, blue eyes. I asked about that today, but he really is pure Canadian timber wolf. He's one of the very rare specimens who kept the blue eyes the pups are born with, and damn, he's a stunner.








I'm bored.



So that was my day. How was yours?

Date: 2008-02-03 03:44 am (UTC)My day wasn't too bad. I'm still trying to punch out a 200 word abstract for a conference and play with some stuff for a seminar presentation I'm giving to the department on Monday. About which I'll post more in my LJ.
I'd give you a bunch of our snow from up here, though, to make better backgrounds for your photos!

I spent today trying to install a wireless router (can we spell "crash and burn"?), tearing down five pcs...going on six, and tossing whole bunches of pc crappola.

Thank you for posting these beauties *smewch*

Date: 2008-02-05 07:12 am (UTC)But of late, I can get my dog to howl and bark with me. I think he thinks I am the "alpha female" of our family pack. But hubby IS the Alpha male, for sure. He LIVES for my hubby! He HATES it when he's gone on the road. He just sulks and follows me around the house from room to room with a sulky look on his face, the BIG baby!

Date: 2008-03-19 05:58 am (UTC)We stopped at a wolf sanctuary in Golden, British Columbia last summer and were blown away by their beauty and intelligence. It must be incredible to get to go in the enclosure with them and photograph them.
The ones of Atka running are wonderful and Lucas is indeed very handsome.
