Behind The Lens

Location

Northwest New Jersey, at a Wolf Santuary

Time

Early morning

Lighting

Natural sunlight, daylight

Equipment

Nikon D300 70-300mm lens

Inspiration

I have always loved wolves... going back to when I was a kid... when I heard of the opportunity to visit the sanctuary and photograph them, I couldn't wait to be able to go! Being that it was such a harsh winter, my appointment was cancelled and rescheduled 5x!! I really wanted to see them in a winter setting, and was thinking I was not going to get the chance if the winter persisted as it was... but on the fifth attempt, though not all areas were accessible, I was able to go and see them in a natural setting.. and get some beautiful shots..

Editing

Not really... a little cropping

In my camera bag

It depends... on this day, I had several lenses with me.. but used the 70-300mm almost the entire time..

Feedback

Patience, willing to travel to get the subject you desire, willing to get out in the elements..
