no doubt...untrained wolves keep their distance...i might be tricked into believing it if the wolf were jumping away from the camera

It's extraordinary that any committee of judges would actually believe
the photographer who claimed the image was made of a wild animal, on
the fly, AND at night.  Absurd on its face.

Alberto,

The rules are clear - the picture looks too good to be true. Why did the
wolf jump the fence? It seems to me that it could have crawled through
with more stealth. A stunt wolf would be easy to recognize by its
owners. Remember when Disney got busted for their fake nature shows?

Forum too quiet. I hope *not* to open a can of worms, but I found this news interesting:
Photographer José Luis Rodríguez won the Veolia Environnement Wildlife Photographer of the Year award, but then the jury, after some investigations, ruled that the animal depicted was tamed/trained and thus the photo ineligible for the competition
http://edition.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/europe/01/21/wildlife.photographer.disqualified/index.html
The disqualification also means a permanent ban for the photographer.
Some are (I am!) very passionate about the subject of ""reality" in photography, but lets just keep this about the rules of the contest.
