This is amazing eye contact and all. I am amazed at the score. this should have a ribbon. Beautiful work, I look at it as the fox is the foreground.

Thanks for the comment. I wish I could have gotten more sharpness on the eyes. The light was perfect but I pushed the limits of the 100-400 lens.

Thanks for the comment Bear but I don’t agree.

It's not all about the Fox, but it is all about the Red. This is a very well taken photograph. What a beautiful animal.
