This fellow looks like a cute little fox.
Love the flower-field he is walking in and how the OOF bottom left corner and the upper right corner balance the frame.
Having said so, the whole frame has a tendency to flip over to the right. Not sure whether this was photographed on a slope (which seems the case to me since the fox looks like walking vertically / straight up).
Overall I like the frame a lot.
Thx for posting Andreas

I love the low angle and the implied slope here Andreas...
I would perhaps have liked a tad more space on the right with less on the left, as the slope gives me the need to see more space on that side of the fox.

Hi Andreas,
The low angle and colours really add to the impact of this image. And I do quite like the intense stare the fox is giving - quite riveting. To me the image looks a tad on the contrasty side and those white out-of-focus patches in the upper right corner did pull at my eye quite a bit. But overall a very pleasing image!
Cheers...thanks for sharing this...

I like the angle you managed to capture this shot at. I think I might tone down the contrast a little....also, I do find the very bright spots in the BG s bit distracting. Wondering if a different crop might suit this better?
