A beautiful dog and a beautiful shot. Congrats on the ribbon.

Excuse my ignorance, but what's NI short for?

Cool that she's an NI, I'd have pegged her as a Malamute. Either way lovely shot.

This shot looks so much like a Bev Doolittle Painting! I love her stuff. So this was one of my highest scores.

Oh, my. I knew that wasn't a wolf - those ears are enormous and the face is too narrow - but I was completely unable to figure out what she was. NI. Never even heard of the Northern Inuit, but I got it. Yay! (I have a husky, hence the enthusiasm.) What a great photo; this is the kind of picture I'd like to have of my Sika.

Great catch on this one. Great focus and balancing the mainly high end whites on this shot.

great timing and framing of your subject
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/09/2007 11:15:00 AM
Whoa, what a capture. Snow is a bit blown out and as such distracts somewhat, but the focus and the balance of that stare is amazing. Stupid question - is that a wolf?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

What an great photo! I love the camouflage colors with the whites and blacks -- and I especially love that puff of snow on his nose.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/08/2007 11:56:01 PM
I like how the animal blends into the background. Maybe a closer crop (taking out more of the body) help? Still a good shot.

Fantastic shot!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/05/2007 10:02:02 AM
great shot
is it a wolf, just not sure? looks very healthy
the eyes make the image
was the wolf feeding? the snow on the nose give it the feeling of feeding
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/05/2007 08:28:16 AM
Great shot. I like this!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/05/2007 01:18:06 AM
Wow! this is beautiful.
My only suggestion would be to crop a little more off the top to simplify the composition - maybe even open it up a little on the left side to place the subject farther from the center.
Very nice! High marks from me.
