Red Fox

Captured this fox this morning in Colorado. I went for a tight crop because of the distracting elements around the fox. Thanks for looking.

Dan: I really like the morning light on the face. The look on the fox's face is so sly! However, the two green plants in the foreground are distracting to me and the rest of the fox is out of focus so don't add alot.. Maybe even a tighter crop?

Hi Dan !!!! The plants are an easy fix with quick masking

Love the side light and created mood Would lighten the chin area just a tad and darken the forehead (very little) I think it would fine tune the already fine looking image !!!! Got to love that expression Big Congrats !!!

Hi Dan, I think the technical issues have been already covered by Joanna and Alfred.....I envy you for your possibilities with those red foxes and keep hoping that you come with one that shows the fox it in it's environment.

Thanks for the helpful suggestions!

Dan, you are the fox man! Great image again. I actually like the OOF body of the fox behind its head and think that's waht makes it different!

I like the look for sure. Might boost the contrast a bit to darken the BG might make the scence more dramatic...
