Red Fox
Canon EOS 1D MKII, 600mm non IS, f7.1, 1/200, ISO 400, Bean bag on car window, RAW, RSE, CS2.

Hi All,

This is one of about 150 shots of Foxes I got on my workshop.

If I remember right this is a Dog Fox, just starting his evening rounds.

Bit of a hick up with the move, so not sure when I'm moving now :mad: :rolleyes:

All comments welcome

Regards

Rob

Hi Rob

An excellent image, good pose and eye contact and the fox is nicely proportioned in the frame and shows the environment well too. I have no nits at all with this shot. My only suggestion as an experiment is to try doing a RAW conversion but set the White Balance manually to give a warmer tone to the image. I am only thinking of a subtle adjustment to try to enhance the light and appearance. Whilst I normally rely on the AutoWB sometimes I find setting it manually can help a little. Just and idea, not a criticism of your post, it is perfectly fine as it is.

cheers

Sean

If your postings aren't a great advert for Phil's workshops, then I don't know what is!
Another species, another fine shot. Well done again Rob.
Best wishes
