Don't even think about it
Thanks for all the comments and advice on my last post.

This is another image of the same Fox. It picked up my golfball, before taking it to one of the mounds. It certainly didn't want me to get it, and looks like he's guarding it!

Techs:
Nikon D300s
Nikon 200-400mm f4 VR
Handheld
F4
1/640s
ISO 800

Delightful Oscar. The fox being sat on the mound has given a lovely delineation between the foreground and the creamily smooth background. Excellent detail in the fox and a very healthy (young looking) subject has given you a very nice image indeed. Top job. :toast:

Hi, Oscar - very excellent image! Great pose and stare, very fine detail, and nice BG.
My only tiny nit is that white blob on the ground - draws my eye away from this lovely fox, so I'd clone the blob oiut.

Knowing what the white blob is helps put it into context, if we did not know then it would have to go. Nigh on perfect fox shot :toast:

Another very good fox image, and for me the best of the bunch so far. Lovely little story behind it too, and I'm very envious to say the least.

Very well done, Oscar :toast:
