Red fox, licking his lips

[Grace Scalzo]

This is the same fellow that I posted a couple weeks ago. Here, he emerged from the swamp, clearly hunting for a meal. I was photographing from the car with my 500 mm lens, I knew that I couldn't fit him all in the frame, so this was my choice. Thank you for looking and for your opinion.

Good crop decision. I like the direct eye contact and tongue. Doesn't look like friendly intentions. :)

Grace - next time take 2 quick shots that get the front end and the back end and then have PS merge them together so you'll have the entire fox - it works great! I usually forget to do it but when I do it's pretty neat.
