Nice shot. The darker background gives the feeling of him/her stalking around at night.. Well done!

I always love fox shots, and this is no exception. The intense stare, and the lifted foot (implying motion) both make this stand out.

Excellent shot Dave. BG is great and sets him off nicely.

Beautifully done! The lighting really sets this apart from other photos. Maybe a touch more USM?

Great composition and his stare is riviting. The detail in the FG is good and the sharpness of his face/front is spot on. Just wish for a little more DOF to get his flank in focus.
