I was told about a family of foxes that frequented a large rock retaining wall, Spent several morning visiting with the family of foxes, The vixen (right) started to groom the younger kit, silhouetted against the blue sky made for a great image.Editing
Cropped in PS nothing else other than RAW conversion.In my camera bag
Depends on what I am after, here I knew what I was up against so I had two bodies a Canon 7D and 5DIII, 500 mm L series lens with 1.4 TC Gitzo Tripod and a back up 400 mm f/5.6L lens.Feedback
get to know you subject and learn how to read their body language, Do not approach beyond their comfort distance, no sudden movements, Foxes are curious and will let you approach with care unlike Coyotes.
