    Hi Giovanni, I like the setting and the falling snow adds to the scene here. Personally I do find the grass stems rather distracting, however removing them may create a too 'sterile' environment, but you have the option. Hard to tell at this size, but with both ISO & SS you could have easily gained more DoF for the face and still retained that nice bokeh BKG. Is this FF or cropped, always add to the info, it helps. If it is FF then I would crop some off the LHS.

    Don't forget to share your thoughts on other members work too.

    I agree with steve and like his repost; the composition might look better if he was not in the center of the frame, I would also crop the bottom, and perhaps tone down the blues. TFS

    Hi Giovanni,I really like the cool conditions you have captured and the way the little Fox is fluffed up against the cold.Composition wise I would just take out the plant on the right think that might just balance it out,all personal taste of course,enjoyed viewing this.

    Hi Giovanni,

    a nice setting for the little white chap. I like it very much with the snow falling. Also one plant is a tad to much, but this is personal taste. So do it or not as you want.
    The composition is mentioned already. In the deadly centre this animal does not fit in that frame, well not for me. You can crop easy

    For the shortcuts LHS RHS... there is a page in this website. I checked, but could not find it anymore, sorry.


    Have a great Sunday

    Ciao Anette

    Hi Giovanni , i really like this shot .
    Lovely overall moody scene / capture and the falling snow is a nice addition .
    I am ok with the OP in general as i agree with Steve it does look bit too sterile without the stems , might have been different if the shot was taken without them .
    Your RP does not work from the cropping POV , fox too close to RHS .I would rather crop from LHS and move the subject to the left .

    TFS Andreas

    Hello
    thanks for your message
    The problem to crop on the left side is the stem is too much near.
    I no like use clone to put out photo's element ..and so I am unable to put the fox in left side (off course it could be fine)
    Any ideas about ?
    Thanks

    Hello Giovanni,

    Glad to see you posting again and I like your arty take on this! Very pretty fox and the falling snow is so lovely...

    I notice you already received good feedback and suggestions, as well as a nice RP from Steve. Here's another idea from me, it involves a bigger crop though. I just think it makes a bit of a "story" as the fox appears to stare in the direction of the plant. Sorry about the sloppy PP work on my part, just wanted to show you another option...

    Kind regards,
