Wildlife Image of the Week for the week ending Feb 28th, 2014: Andreas Liedman - Just got fed by mummy !!
Congratulations Andreas!
Hi folks,
Morkel reminded me of my experience with a Cape Fox family i had back in 2005 in Kgalagadi Transfrontierpark in SA.
I watched them for 3 days from time to time, just out of Nossob Camp.
Light wise location was not that good , the whole day there was either back or side light, the youngsters did not move far away from the den while mummy was away for getting food.The other problem was the location , partly hidden by shrub.If there has been other cars around, not possible to move.
So from time to time you could see them racing through the shrub and then disappearing in the same.
In this case i got some luck, the mother got back with a mouse and gave it to this youngster , who immediately raced into the den.
IQ is not as good as today, due to technical equipment and camera settings i used.But hey that could happen.
Canon EOS 1D MK II
EF 500 is L + 1,4 TC (version 1)
beanbag on car window
F 5,6 ; Iso 100 ; 1/500 sec
Hi Steve processed with PhotoNinja and PS CC. cropped for comp, do not ask to go tighter, IQ does not allow it.
