Yellowstone Serenity 2

Image Description

An ancient image, resurrected and re-edited as best I could, for a project a couple months ago.
Very timely for this week’s WC!
I remember taking this series of images as if it were yesterday.
Total , deep silence as only insulating snow can offer, not a bit of wind, no spoken words, just 4 of us in grateful awe and veneration of the majesty of Yellowstone in winter.
There are actually 11 wolves - one is behind the first tree.

Wow, what a catch! As a lover of all canines, I find this scene beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

Wonderful, what a moment. I like the pano crop and the processing, just a few details left in the snow.
Nothing left to say, for me. Except that I would like to be there, and experience this.

Another great image. Composition and balance are right on. I’d like to, ( See the older images below for “Yellowstone Serenity 1”). Is there a link I missed, or should I go to your web site?
THANKS

Wow! That is an incredible image! The framing, the simplicity, the content, etc. - amazing.

Hi, Skip - when you open a thumbnail, at the very bottom, there will be several older images with similar themes or titles. I think my original “Yellowstone Serenity” will be shown there.
Apparently, it’s also listed now at the very top of the site under “recent Editor’s Picks” - even though the image is more than 6 years old. I don’t understand this site sometimes…
Thanks for the kind comments!

Thanks, I’ll look for it.

Th9is is an excellent pano of the wolf pack Sandy. Great catch. It is so clean and simple, and yet tells a wonderful story. Another excellent image Sandy. Nice work.
