More information:

Many coyotes (Canis latrans) in the southern US, including the Galveston population, are natural hybrids of the nearly-extinct red wolf (Canis rufus) and harbor up to 69% of its “ghost” DNA in their genomes. My idea was to picture animals in their environment with night sky and make something “ghostly” combining flashes with long exposure.
