Carpathian Wolves

Alone I am, in this world of my own,
Only a wolf by my side, in this land I must hide
I follow the light, the moon upon the snow
The music of the night is the wind in the trees
Alone in my thoughts, no one can know
And with me those feelings will stay
For the sun may have me for another day
In a way where I am lost to the netherwood
Curled away with the wolf, awaiting another moon
A hiding place to weep, if only I could

A slightly difficult manip to do, mainly because of the shadows. I wasn't sure how to tackle that, so I simply airbrushed them in. I fear that the picture may look a little blotchy. As I say, I'm still new to photo manip, so I'm still learning techniques.
The figures in my art are intended to be male.
