I have posted some of these wolf images before. But I recently started using Topaz for noise reduction so I re-edited them and liked the results, so I thought I would repost them just for fun. Also added a few new ones. Thank you in advance for looking.
Kinda makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up Greg! Wow beautiful and intense looks here. That last shot just grabs me, love it Image #10 is interesting with the grouping of animals and birds. Image #5 is a great open comp shot, very nice IMO. Some of the BG's got a little weird, not sure if you created those or result of how Topaz AI worked them?
Those are amazing Greg. They are one intense creature. I sure hope you had long glass, that crow in #9 would probably tell you the wolves don't play well with others. I really like the dark clouds in the last shot, but the closeups are amazing.

Super sweet set, thanks for sharing!

Thanks Karl. I agree, the backgrounds got a little funky in a couple of the shots. They were taken mid day, it was hot out so a lot of heat distortion was being created, especially noticeable in the background. It was visible in the raw file before any post processing was applied. I'm just guessing but I think you nailed it. When I applied Topaz noise reduction it smoothed out the heat waves in the background creating that strange look. Thanks again for the comments/feedback I do appreciate it.

Thanks Dave ! 600mm and and a 1.4x if needed. I agree the display of teeth says it all.
