Wow. Looks like he has heard something though. Lovely detail and composition - absolute belter Guy.

A beautiful image with lovely detail Guy but not sure whether a little more room on top might be better. I am not sure whether that it the solution or a lower POV but I feel I am looking down on the Fox from some height. Still a cracking image I would love to have. :smile: :wavey:

Hello Maggie and thanks for your comment.

I could have gone for a lower POV, but chose the higher one so I could include the entrance, which I felt was an important part of the image. The lower POV would have caused to much mush and cover the view of the entrance.

All the best Guy.

Excellent Guy,

I agree a bit more on the top would help if you have it available.

Cheers

A great shot with loads of detail :toast:

a bit more room on top or lower pov would look better, but would still like to have it as one on mine :biggrin:

Agree with above - 'tis a belter Guy !

A very healthy looking cub, I initially thought that a lower angle would be better but as you say this way it shows its front door-big for this time of year

Nice one... just right in the frame for me... the fg is more important in this case than the bg...

a lovely shot Guy and a very attractive cub. I agree it's important to show the entrance but I think I'd still prefer just a little bit more at the top and less at the bottom. No big deal though and a very strong image as it is.

A superb image in lovely soft light, whilst still retaining the attractive warm tones of the coat.
The composition is absolutely perfect, IMO.

Nice lighting and a very appealing subject ,perhaps a bit more on top but a very nice shot all the same.

A little more room on top would have been nice but still a lovely portrait of a fantastic little animal.

Nits covered, like the inclusion of the earth entrance and a very healthy, well developed looking cub.
Posted by Paul Rosser on May 11, 2010 at 2:07 PM
Nits covered. A fine image!
