The fox is a tad bit out of focus. The border color matching your subject is a nice touch.

Hard to catch, but the focus was just too off to get a really nice image.

I find the thin border a bit distracting. Not a bad image but a bit on the soft side.

Composition is okay but the focus is off ... and a rather iffy border.

too bad this shot is blurry. Comp is GREAT. the gray trunk, the gray branches with the green in between them and the red fox in the third of the frame! wonderful. had this been sharp and little more vibrant I would have said this would have been a ribbon! 7 nevertheless

He's thinking "HUH?" LOL

I like the composition but I think the focus is hurting a bit. I'd love for his face to be tack sharp.

Oh how sweet. Great job getting it to look at you. The image looks a bit soft though, imo.

You're too far way and your zoom does not do you justice. I don't like the border on this either.

Your background should be darker and your subject should be a bit more brown.

better focus would have helped this get a higher score I think.

Lovely capture but needs to be a bit sharper. I'm guessing that this was a photo op that suddenly presented itself and you did not have much time to play around with the settings. IMO (and I have to point out that I am not a big border fan generally) the thin border does not do it for me

Blurry and try tweaking the curves for a little more oomph.

He's pretty, but out of focus; comes off as snapshottish. I'd also lose the border.
