His piercing blue eyes revealing his wolf ancestry, a huskie waits for his call to mush with a woman’s sled dog team in Alaskan Sled Dog & Racing Association competition during Fur Rondy, the very popular annual winter festival held every February in and near Anchorage, AK.
Wildlife photography has a very strong presence in my work. The creatures of this world inspire a certain joy when I see them, and I want to record the spirit of living and being that is unique to each. Seriously, who can look away from the compelling gaze of the Alaskan huskie below? In his blue eyes I saw intelligence and cognition, as well as intensity.
