Coyote

[Nate Chappell]

Hi everyone, here's a coyote I photographed at a local park a few years ago, I was surprised to find one that was accomdodating for photos. I photographed this animal for a good 10 minutes or so until it turned to leave, that is when I took this photo. Full frame.

Unusual and attractive perpective, with plenty of detial and nice light. Eye contact a big plus. I may easy a bit on the contrast.

I like it as presented especially the perspective.

Nate, Lovely look back pose. I like the lighting and the environment-I agree w/ Peter about the green area. Very Nice!

Nate,

Other then the green stuff mentioned, this works out really well. The over the shoulder look works out since you have enough DOF to get the butt relatively sharp.

I really like the over the shoulder look. Minor problems discussed. Good eye contact!

Thanks, here it is with the green area cropped out.

Hi Nate,
I like the look back pose and the surrounding grasses. The green didn't bother me too much as I thought it balanced out the darker BG spots on the other side of the coyote. Seems like a vertical would've been nice for this pose too if you had the time. 10 minutes is a good session for these guys.
