リカオンのニコ。雪が積もった展示場で、雪が降る中、向かって右の方を見ている。

リカオンのニナ。真っ白な雪で覆われた展示場を背景に撮ったため、まるで真っ白なスタジオで撮ったかのような写真。大きな耳や額や背中に、白い雪がぱらぱらとくっついている。

リカオンのトミーとトシ。とっておきガイドでもらったお肉を咥えているトシと、それを狙っているトミー。

リカオンのトミーとトシ。雪が積もった展示場を駆けている場面を撮影した。カメラに対して奥の方から2匹が走ってきている。手前を走るトシはピントがずれてボケている。その後ろを走るトミーにはピントが合っている。リカオンの疾走感を出したかった。

雪とリカオンたち。
