    These foxes seem to be always on the move but this little fella decided to stop - just for a second - and give me a pretty good shot of him. Shot through a fence at the Oklahoma City Zoo.

    Canon 7DII, Tamron 70-300 VC @ 300mm. ISO 1250. 1/1250 @ f8. Hand held.

    Hi Richard, can you forward the RAW to me via Dropbox. Drop me a PM with your email and I will respond with mine so you can forward. The image is clipped in the Blacks and it would be good to see whats what on the original. Also you need more SS, 1/250 as this is very low.

    Don't forget to pass feedback on other postings, you then may also get more feedback on your postings too.

    Cheers
    Steve

    SS was 1/1250. I goofed up on the first post.

    It was a tough shot. The enclosure is mostly stone and thick, scratched, dirty glass with small section at the back with chain link fence. The foxes were constantly on the move and mostly in deep shade with a strong winter sun coming from the side. I had only a very narrow window to shoot through and he happened to stop momentarily in just the right spot. The shot is exposed a bit to the right and has to be pulled down a bit to get good highlight detail.

    Not too sure I have much to offer in the way of critique of others so far, but I have been looking around.

    nice and secretive feel about this image. Almost shows the secret life of a little fox. Very nice detail. Not sure on the crop but can't think of what to do to improve. Nice one Richard.
