[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This picture was taken this past Sunday! As this female fox has 6 cubs to feed, here she is taking some times for herself stretching and playing in the snow. She came very close to me and I was able to enjoy her and take a few pictures before she left for some more hunting!

What a wonderful shot Lise,
So very cute to see the fox stretching right in front of you
Unbelieveble that she is so relaxed while she knows and does see your presence at that time.
Technically perfect work with great sharpness and exposure and due to that most wonderful contrast, clorors and details in the fur.
Excellent work. TFS!!!

Kindest regards, Harry

Oh Lise,

Wonderful shot 10/10 for the cuteness factor, excellent POV and detail, perfect exposure, she really looks like she's enjoying her moment of freedom for the kids, just stunning, all the best Cheers Rick :)

bonjour Lise

j'ai vu cette renarde faire ce manège à quelques reprises
mais sans pouvoir la prendre en photo, tu as fait une
superbe image en cliquant la caméra au bon moment, TFS

Hi Lise, so many posts of foxes in Montreal from different people today. This is a beauty, really well captured.
cheers

Bonjour Lise,
Wow, quelle pose de vedette. Belles couleurs et détails. L'exposition est aussi excellente. La famille de renards du Jardin botanique est devenue une vraie vedette.
Merci et bravo!

Hi Lise!

How cute and lovely she is, taking her nap! Wild animals can sometimes look to be fit for a pet when sleeping :)
The centered composition is fine here, emphasizing the subject. Expo might be a tiny bit lower than my taste (mostly on snow and the leg) but still very close and some spots of snow would get OE in the bg if increased brightness further - so for a conlusion I probably would have done the same :) Sharpness and details very fine and the color is very realistic on the fox! TFS!

Best regards,
Andor

That is amazing, Lise.
I can't believe she was so trusting. : 0
A fantastic POV of this busy mom taking a short break.
Great details on the subject, well shown against the clean snow.
TFS. : )

Hello Lise,
This is excellent, viewing this put a big smile on my face :-) Being this close to you she has obviously developed some trust in you, something we have to work at but a wonderful feeling when it happens. It's a great image, technically great, good focus and excellent detail, contrast and colours. I like the low angle too, it works very well.

I agree with Gondor on the exposure, just a little under on the foreground. Over-exposing one third in-camera would blow the highlights in the background, so what I would suggest is some selective brightening on the foreground snow. It's a minor thing though, it's already a beautiful image.

Kind regards,
Adrian

Hi Lise, very nice natural pose of this tired looking mother. The exposure is very good, you've captured very excellent colour and textures on the snow and on the fox. Great job.

Thanks, John

It's always amazed me how close your Canadians get to your subjects! Here a Fox would speed off if it saw you a mile away!
Very sharp with excellent detail.
A lovely pose and that expression is priceless! :-)
Great light and exposure.
Very good POV.
Well done Lise!

Joe

I really see that you get better with each shot taken.
I believe this photo will be seen for years to come by many people.
It is a very good moment and your POV could not be finer.The focus is top notch.
Glad you shared this!
Enjoy the weekend

Quel moment merveilleux cela a du être. Je rêve depuis longtemps de pouvoir photographier un renard et je n'ai jamais eu cette chance... Il faudrait bien m'indiquer où on peut trouver cette maman extraordinaire :) C'est une très belle prise en action, on dirait qu'elle rit! Bravo!

Hi again Lise,
