Finally getting a chance to share some more of my photos from my trip to Denali earlier this month.  Look at the difference in the appearance of this beautiful wolf in two photos taken just 7 seconds apart.  The first one looks nice a friendly like a family pet, the second one…

This wolf was passing by me at a fast pace – I didn’t think I had too many options except maybe a pan / blur when all of a sudden she stopped and laid down in some really sweet light!  The bottom photo was taken at f/13 thinking I would be panning, the top one was dialed down to f/4 so that I could limit the depth of field, and improve the background and foreground by blurring the distracting elements.

  3. Superb, Ron! Interesting to see the difference in depth of field. You are a good planner and quick thinker.

    Those teeth and that look are mighty impressive! You are an amazing photographer!

    Kind regards from Western Australia.

    I agree, she really is a beautiful animal! Thanks Pat.

    @ Mark – my dog would make that expression – but not with those teeth!

    Thanks Dennis.
