Came across this vixen while hiking in Aosta, had the 500 and MK4 in the rucksack so scrambled to get it out and get a few shots before she was off.

1dMk4 +EF500, f7.1, 1/250th, ISO 800, 2200m

Position, stance and intense stare all look good Calum. Still think the little bright bits need toning down though. :biggrin: All has worked out nicely. :wink:

Thanks for all the kind comments and advice much appreciated.

Shaun Aosta is the smallest region of Italy, it's situated on the border of France and Switzerland. Basically it's an Alpine paradise with plenty of good food and wine, well worth a visit.
