Hi Sandy,

Lovely colours and setting in this one! The greens really pop from both the foreground and background. I do find the composition a little awkward- if this is a crop then maybe a little bit more experimentation might help? It does also seem a little soft in the large version and the fox's front seems to have a blue cast. These are all just minor tho and easily remedied!

Hi Sandy,

What a beautiful fox and setting. :toast: It may be my work monitor but this seems a little too vibrant or saturated.

Great pose, as if he is sitting for a studio shot! I agree that saturation might be a little strong, especially the blues. This sure is a beautiful subject!

Beautiful subject Sandy, love that bushy tail. Must have been a very cooperative subject with a focal length like that! As mentioned the saturation and color balance seem slightly off, having said that it does create an almost story book feel to the scene.
