    Nice pose from the 'yote Dan. If mine I may bring down the brightness just a tad and a touch more selective sharpening to the face. Looks like critical sharpness might be just behind the face (hairs on back seem sharpest). Where in Oregon? I was @ Malheur NWR in mid Nov and made a few coyote images while there. TFS

    Hi Dan,
    I think this is one of my favorite shots of yours. Nice low angle, great habitat feel to it. Lobe the blue BG. Well done!

    If this is a typical Oregon winter scene, you might be getting a visitor. :) Love it Dan. I'd crop a bit from the right as viewed as I think the comp would be stronger.

    Todd has hit the nail on the head in my opinion, if only you had a slightly higher head lift it would have been truly magical.

    Hi Dan, really like the rich colours and that winter light in the BKG. Good point raised by Todd and that HA certainly echos your intro. Great perspective, totally unphased by your presence it seems, good fieldcraft.

    I love the POV here Dan, and the winter morning light...Todd has raised some good points and suggestions to improve it for web posting...but overall I think it's a very strong image!
