The Wolfby *Lenmanaa

Absolutely wonderful, the whites are fantastic and mix into the background wonderfully. The picture is crisp and clean, the eyes and nose standout strikingly, there is great texture, and this is my favorite animal of all time. On terms of originality, although it is hard to snap a photo of one of these wonderfully majestic animals, and this is a fairly common angle and view on a wolf, however you did a great job of making unique and it is an eye grabber. As far as technique goes, great use of exposure, the image is nice and sharp, textures like I said before are delicious! but, the image is far too centered! Move it of to the right or an inch or two, WOW what a difference, or maybe since it is so symmetrical, cut the image right down the middle of the wolfs face so that we only see one eye, and half a nose. That would improve technicality, originality and vision.

What do you think?

This is absolutely wonderful. At first glance from the thumbnail, I thought it was a light colored pencil sketch, then had to really look to see that it was a photograph. The stark contrast of the eyes and the nose really stand out from all the white and cream, and the way that the wolf's fur seems to meld into the background of the snow is just beautiful!

I starred this so high on originality because of how the outline of the wolf disappears. With many photographs of wolves, there is always a distinct line as to where their fur ends, but this is different and makes it almost fairy tale. A sort of... Dreamlike quality
