All Alone

Red Fox Kit photographed in the woods near my house. This is the smallest of four kits. It's really small compared to the others so I guess its the runt. Its the cutest thing Ive ever seen!!!!

I set up with a blind over my camera and tripod. It was overcast so the light was kind of flat but I hope to get better shots at sunrise or sunset.

Canon EOS 5D MIII
Canon EF500mm f/4L IS II USM + 1.4x III (tripod mounted)

ISO 1600
f/5.6
1/1000s

Wondering if anyone has any comments on the composition or ways to improve this image.

Thanks, Ashleigh

You need to read the posting rules a little closer. It clearly states that if you post an image this adorably cute, you must give a warning before the viewer opens the large image. I'm not sure I can comment on the other aspects of the image, because I can't talk my eyes off this cute guy (gal). LOVE IT!!!!!

This is as sweet as can be! I like how the little green sprout of a bush/tree frames the subject. Great eyes.

It is really too cute, Ashleigh! The framing under the green leaves is a nice bonus. :toast:

Love the cute stare! The framing from the overhead branch really adds to the photo. The dominant out of focus foreground is a little distracting.
Nicely captured!

Wow! This picture is so cute. I wish I had something like this! I have fox kit pictures but nothing like this. I like how there is lots of detail in the kit's fur and it is a nice background. Awesome picture!
