Almost a look of wonderment on his cute face. Very nice indeed. The feather puts it over the top.

Great catch! Very sharp, good color. Being Canada, sure the feather is not frozen to the nose? Thanks for sharing.

Excellent detail and pose with the feather putting the image over the top. The kit is paced perfectly against the muted background. Congrats! Richard

Bill,
STUPENDOUS,
in spite of the fact that it must have been "naughty" it is still remarkably cute

Hi Bill,
Adorable. Reminds me of stories of foxes raiding the hen house. Lovely light and background. Also great framing.

Cheers,

Hisham.
