fine art prints (1)

Photographing in the arctic presents its challenges. Namely, the lack of cover to hide oneself behind and the bitter cold. Most photographers can get relatively close to these animals or watch them through binoculars. Unfortunately, not many can get too close, especially without the added camouflage of a cover. The added cold, which can reach -56 °F, makes it difficult for anyone to endure waiting for these timid creatures to show.

Once the snowmobile was packed and heading to town 8 hours away, I was suddenly stopped in my tracks. The elusive arctic wolf appeared on the horizon. Almost to bid me goodbye, as I was giving up my expedition of arctic wolf images for wolf decor. What’s your favourite arctic wolf photography from Ejaz Khan fine art photography?

A MIRACULOUS MOMENT

Divine intervention or poetic justice, this find was the highlight of a week of adversity and terrifying loneliness in our attempt to get arctic wolf pics. Waiting to take pictures of arctic wolves for wolf decor was taking a toll. There are times that one marvels at the magnificence of a solitary existence. This was one of those times. I have been so fortunate to learn to make myself one with my nature and surroundings to capture these pictures of arctic wolf and arctic wolf art images.

Shrinking Numbers Leads to Elusiveness

The overall numbers of these animals have also been cut down due to human advancements. Deliberate interference from humans has reduced these animals’ habitat to about a third of what it was originally. Most of this comes from fear of arctic wolfs preying on livestock and attacking humans, which are rare. Much deforestation takes place to make room for cattle farming. This encroaches onto the natural woodland habitat of the arctic wolves, pushing their territories to be smaller and smaller.
