Description
Was a sheer pleasure watching these whilst walking - i knew about these and carried my gear on my back
Great action you caught, Karl, and it looks very good technically. When I look at this image, I somehow feel that it would would work even better if the foxes were a bit higher in the frame, but maybe that’s just me or how I have my monitor positioned.
A great year for foxes is right - what a terrific moment in the life of both these animals. The interaction is really great and not something I think I’ve seen before. With this scene and your skills, I don’t think you need to be creative to produce something people can relate to and marvel over. I really like that they were on a slight incline in the landscape - it adds just a little more interest.
Terrific behavioral look at these two. Techs seem to be good, and I personally think the crop is about right. I don’t know what mom is trying to teach junior, but you can bet there’s a lesson in there somewhere! Well done.
Great behaviour, beautiful moment and killer frame !
You may slightly burn the foxes, especially light areas and it may benefit from little boost in the contrast.
Cheers!
Very lovely moment! I would just recommend cooling down the white balance a bit. Those orange foxes will really pop when the background goes more aqua toned.
