^®claryl: magical moment do you associate with your picture?

WSW: Magical moment … that is the moment when, after a long period of time, you once again see a beautiful winter with lots of snow, a clear sky and sunshine. That is because this is usually destroyed by lots of rain and the "dreary" weather which follows.

^®claryl: How was this photo taken?

WSW: This photo was taken on one of my forays in our garden.

^®claryl: What do you love about winter?

WSW: Winter is the season in which you can once again see your surroundings in a different light. There are things that you simply do not see at other times of the year … I think this is what I love about winter.

^®claryl: What prompted you to take part in the competition?

WSW: Just 4 fun. Just take part in everything and see what happens.

^®claryl: What is it that makes photography special for you?

WSW: Photography is multifaceted and ultimately it reflects the personality of the person performing it. Each photo has a particular meaning and can be viewed in different ways by different people.

^®claryl: Which picture will you have framed?

WSW: I have opted for one of my photographs from last year. A wolf with a watchful look staring straight ahead.
