Foxy Hottie
I just shot this Gray Fox about an hour ago here in the Hill Country of Central Texas. Temps hit 90 so he's feeling it today.
Summer has arrived early, which is usually the case here...
F/8, 1/500th, ISO 500, 1D M3, 300mm f/2.8 + 1.4x ext and mostly cloudy.

Nice one Howard. This has all the earmarks of one of your images ... tack sharp and a pleasing comp to boot.

Amazing shot, Howard! I've always liked seeing foxes, but have never come close to getting a shot this good. They are such interesting critters...kind of a cross between a dog and a cat.

This is just too cute! Love the gold color around the ears and neck. Very clear shot! Good shot!
