Vixen III + rp
Last night allowed me to concentrate a little more on portraits of her.
On this one I think Andy S, who was to my right farted (as is his way . I think its a nervous thing for him.LOL)
Taking on board the comments on mush a closer and slightly more elevated position was adopted.

Another superb Fox image Mark, the best of the series IMO.

Is that a gas cloud caused by somebody's flatulence, in the foreground? The fox is obviously used to such occurrences. :biggrin: :wink: Superb portrait your best yet.

I know i am hard to please but i do find the bright green mush over powering-its a personal thing but i feel the image would benefit without it, I like the comp and the peeking around the tree which works well
Look forward to more

Well me old musher, the mush police don't like your mush, but for me it's fine and definitely not so much in ya mush as the last mush in your previous post.

It all looks a bit 'luminous' in this one - make a nice birthday card for Guy :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:
