OK.. Jake!... great shot... but next year you said YOU would be the wolf decoy if I survived... and I just got out of the hospital.. they say I will be able to walk by winter... so lets go!

  Hey Kenn -
So sorry to hear about your prosthetic leg! I'm hoping that you'll be able to move a little faster by this winter. You know firsthand how difficult it is being the wolf decoy...especially during mating season!

Best Regards,
Jake

  Jake...
this is another incredible nature shot from you. I love all the blended tones and colors in this...it's a very serene and peaceful shot (apparently that changed when the wolf ate Kenn C.'s leg!)Congrats on your well deserved win..

  Congratulations Jake on this fantastic winner. What big teeth he has. I hope you are joking about Ken???? I haven't seen him around for awhile now...did you feed him to the wolves? Seriously I hope he is OK...

  Congratulations on another winning image Jake..well done mate...
By the way I'm doing a White Pointer/ Tiger Shark shoot and I wonder if it would be too much of an imposition to borrow Ken for the weekend.... tell him it's ok....we have a spare leg... admittedly it's a poodles but should work fine......thanksssssssss.....
