Nice capture Jack ... I'll swap it for my Xmas card robin from the previous post .
An excellent grab shot of an urban Fox. Pity the foreground is the top of a wall, if you had managed to capture it actually standing in snow, and thus had the associated detail, then I really think this would have been something else.

I like this one Jack, I'd love to see a fox this close, nice.

Hi Jack great capture and I agree with the other comments.
Nice, the fence in the bg doesn't bother me but the OOf snow on wall at the front does, but realise that there was probably not a lot you could have done about it...
The fence probably bothers me more than the wall. If the BG was cleaner than I think perhaps you could get away with it. Other than that, I really quite like the shot.

The wall in my case, but I know how difficult it is sometimes. Nice detail in the fox's determined looking eyes.
