Captivity



After yesterday's "freedom" post, here's a stab at the opposite. I had a few ideas for this - for example, a shot of my office! That's pretty much the polar opposite of yesterday's picture, conceptually... but the picture comes first, and I prefer this one. Doesn't need much explanation: it's a timber wolf, looking at me through a wire fence (that's the blurry bit across the muzzle - which spoils the photo, except seeing as this is about captivity, it's actually the whole point, meaning I can use an otherwise flawed image - everyone's a winner). The wolf is one of the denizens of Parc Omega, a safari park near Montebello.

Details: Nikon D70, 75-240mm @ 240mm, f/5.6, 1/640s, ISO 200. Parc Omega, Quebec, 9 April 2005. Placemark.
