Nice coyote photo, I like the pose it is in, and the good detail in its face. Does look a bit crowded in the frame to me. Thanks for sharing.

Great catch on this coyote, Tom, with lots of details in it's fir set against a nice warm background of fall grasses. The frame filling view feels like a portrait, but the pose and the fact that it's not looking at you adds a good sense of action.

Love almost everything about this. It would be much better if you had a little more room. Great capture.

Hi Tom,
I'm in agreement with the previous folks on this one - technically a good shot and certainly not lacking in detail. It does feel on the overly tight side to me - I'd like to see more room all around and, in particular, on the left side of the frame. There's always a temptation to think "closer is better" in wildlife photography, but in many cases if you move in tightly on the subject the issue of "just getting the whole animal in the frame" tends to crowd out any creative options you may have in capturing the shot, especially in terms of those related to subject placement in the frame.
Cheers...thanks for sharing this one...
