Great shot, Dan. Nice eye contact, composition and most importantly light.

The nice low perspective combined with the posture make this shot! Nice job.

Another lovely foxshot Dan (but not very different from the ones we've seen from you in the past). I'd suggest you to use a shorter focallenght next time and show it in it's environment.

Hey Dan

Awesome - a tad more DOF would be nice, but awesome as is.

Cheers

Hey Dan, Great shot of one of my favorite animals. Actually, quite literally. I think I might know this guy. Is this from Prospect Park in Wheat Ridge?
