    Fabs, The BG and snow are wonderful-this is one of the best fox shots I've seen because of the BG- Her eyes are crystal clear-I love her stare-really nice!!

    Very nice image Fabs. I keep wanting to blow on the screen to clear the fog away from the fox. If anyone ever gets an image of a yeti, I hope its with surroundings like this. Did you compose this image with this much FG to give the fox a higher angle to the viewer?

    I had the tripod lowered, hoping to get OOF snow and she stood there long enough for me to take one picture. I was delighted when I saw this one. Cropped a sliver of the top for composition.

    Thanks!!!

    One word... fantastic. ;)

    I just looked at this one again after posting the other day... Fabs - have you played with a tighter crop and centering the fox? If you have the pixels to do so, it might be interesting to see how it looks. Just a thought. :-) Hope you have a great Christmas/Holidays.

    I echo all the previous comments of it being a wonderful image...

    I would have been tempted to crop the image as a pano....

    well done Fabs...
