About This Image
I’ve seen a few interesting animals on the driveway camera that I would like to photograph – foxes, bobcats and even a skunk. They are nocturnal and I’m not, so I set up a camera trap. So of course it was be careful what you wish for as targets have been numerous, but >95% have been skunks. They (or it) are kind of cute, but always snurfling on the ground, presumably looking for bugs. I got tired of waiting for a better pose and decided to put this one up – one of the earlier ones from a couple of weeks ago.

The capture is underexposed (LED hot lights) so brought up in LR, and Highlights brought down. Into Ps for some minor BG cleanup and about a 50% crop.
. Seriously though, I like it. Is it a portfolio image? Probably not. But certainly worth keeping. I like the pose with a nice highlight in the eye and the tail swirling out, giving the image some life.
