Hi Rob. I'm curious on your compositional choice here. I think the overall look of the subject is good. How does the empty space on the right of the picture enhance the shot? Are you putting the colors of the leaves to work here? If so, then I think the placement of the subject suffers because of it. I really like this series - they're very beautiful animals and very good choices as subjects.
Hey Kurt ...thanks for your comments on the Wolves series, much appreciated.
As to your question on the balance on this shot: I considered the wolf, as the object, to include it's shadow as part of
"the story" of the shot. With this in mind it may reshape. It may suffer, but that was the line of thinking. What do you think?

If anyone is curious, this was Manitou, the Omega male (lowest in the males). He paced almost constantly. Perhaps more hungry then the rest? He was the largest and lankiest. However, with wolves it would seem to have more to do with willingness to fight for dominance. His brother had already won the Alpha male battle with the other males when the previous alpha male (Trats) died. But from Manitou's snout, it looks like he's still been in a scrap or two :)
