Hello John.

Lovely capture and really like the way the light is just catching the top half of the fox. Love the setting and the only nit would be the dark top right corner but thats being picky and I would be well pleased with this image.

Thanks Guy .
You're right but I think you will agree it would be a tricky clone job with the fine grasses etc. Its the evening sun that lit up the bright backdrop areas.
Cheers

John

Natural spotlight really enhances the image.

This is what happened a few mintes later.
Not too sharp but the best I could do at that time in the evening.
