Shy Wolf Sanctuary - Naples, FL

The mission of the Shy Wolf Sanctuary is the rescue of wolves that can not be reintroduced into the wild and Wolf Dogs - a breeders invention that can have unexpected and un welcome results.  The animals are all well cared for and obviously loved! 

Nancy

 Nancy is the founder of the Shy Wolf Sanctuary in Naples, Florida.  I met her while she had her sleeves rolled up and cleaning out an enclosure.  

Judy

Judy was our personal guide through the maze of enclosures.  Every animal had its own story, that Judy lovingly told.

Robert - Street Musician

You never know what you will find when you take your camerea into the city. As I was walking around looking for interesting objects and faces, my ears were treated to the dulcet sounds of a violin. When I discovered who was making the sounds my mind reeled with the incongruity. Here was a homeless man, Robert,playing for an audience of one, another homeless man, Donald. What was the lesson learned? To me the lesson was, no matter your circumstances, make your music. You just never know how far into the universe the beauty of the moment will go. Thanks for sharing your music with me Robert.

Meet Yoyo, a photographer searching for people in the world.

I don't often post two different photos of people, but after photographing Yoyo, something was said that made us both laugh. I felt it necessary to post the laughing Yoyo, even though I almost missed the shot.
