Churchill '08

We had quite a few opportunities with arctic fox. This image was made in falling snow while the fox scurried about looking for lemmings and food caches buried earlier.

See you where there is light, or at the computer

A lovely pose captured Chas....and these winter arctic fox images make me green of envy :-) Very nice. However...I'd like to suggest to brighten up the photograph a bit (i.e. pulling up your levels from 255 to 245)...which makes the photograph way more attractive IMHO.

One question...what's the chance of photographing arctic foxes in Churchill? And is it possible to photograph them on groundlevel (so out of the vehicle?). Perhaps you're willing to share that with me. Thanks!
