What is he eating??  I think the curled tongue is the element that raises the interest a whole notch.  I like the bright eyes, too.  Detail and depth of field look right on. IF you have extra space left, I would consider a wee bit more there, maybe making the diagonal slope of the rock behind his face angle to the corner.

Fantastic. Love the tongue and the texture of the fur. Maybe a bit tight on the bottom but it looks like if you included more canvas there you might have ended up with some OOF foreground rocks. Love it. devil

The tongue and the great eye contact make this one a winner Butchdevil

Butch: I really like the strong contrast of the fox's coat against the grey rocks. His pose, curled tongue and eye contact are all winners. My only suggestion would be to tone done the oof rocks where your copyright is. Richard
