*************

' - on ne connaît que les choses que l'on apprivoise, dit le renard.. si tu veux un ami, apprivoise-moi !
- que faut-il faire ? dit le petit prince.
- il faut être très patient, répondit le renard. tu t'assoiras d'abord un peu loin de moi, comme ça, dans l'herbe. je te regarderai du coin de l'oeil et tu ne diras rien. le language est source de malentendus. mais, chaque jour, tu pourras t'assoir un peu plus près...'

(extrait 'le petit prince ')

have a great weekend !

Hi Carole,
Nice and meaningful looks you captured. I liked colours, POV, posture and looks very much.

TFS.............Filiz

I do like these animals even though they can do a lot of damage, this is a wonderful shot with such detail and great use of natural light Carole.

Bonjour Carole,
Très beau profil de ce brillant animal, avec juste le bon angle pour mettre les deux oreilles bien en vue. La lumière est très bonne aussi, car elle met la tête en valeur par rapport au reste de l'image. Si je puis me permettre, j'aurais fermé de deux ou trois stops pour descendre à 1/125 ou 1/60, (quitte à prendre appui sur quelque chose ou l'épaule de quelqu'un), pour augmenter légèrement votre profondeur de champ.
Cela dit, Maître Renard est superbe!
Bien cordialement
Jean-Michel

Hi Carole,
that's a beautiful shot, the eye is fantastic with the reflection inside.
Excellent work, I love it, thanks

Excellent light and great pose in this shot, not to mention the beautiful subject. I think you could have left less space in the back and more in the front of your subject. I found that f/1.8 gives a very shallow depth of field at 50 mm, and wish you would had used a narrower aperture here, maybe f/4 for better sharpness throughout.

Hi Carole,
You have captured the beauty of this fox really well, great colour and lighting and a good sharpness around the eye, the only thing I find a little distracting are the two out of focus lines on the left of the head, but thats only a minor issue, I have done a quick workshop to move the lines, hope you like it.
Well done
Regards Andy

Hi Carole,
What an excellent picture of this fox, good details and DOF and very nice clear capture of his eyes, which is always very important to feel as if we are seeing him as if he is real.
Wonderful and intelligent expression on his face.

Mario

ciao Marco

Bonjour Carole
Il a une bien jolie tête ce renard. Très belle exposition et plein de détails du pelage. Luminosité intéressante.
Dommage qu'il soit en captivité. "Rien n'est parfait" disait le Renard du Petit Prince.
Bravo

Bonsoir Carole,

Je suis tellement contente de revoir mon copain, qu'elle beauté! C'est une superbe portrait, bien composé et détaillé. La profondeur de champs est bien choisie avec une superbe luminosité. J'aurais enlevé le peu de bruit dans le background mais ça demeure un détails insignifiant :) Une beauté! Merci!
Claudine

Belle image précise.Nous au Québec on en a beaucoup mais leur couleur est moins découpé et précises. Beaux détails
j'aime cette photo Réal.

Hi Carole,

WOW, this is so sharp and filled with detail and texture. It is amazing!

You grasped the character of the fox perfectly!

Most beautiful.

Hello Carole sorry not been here for a bit and have missed some nice photos, I think you got a great portrait here the light was lovely the shallow dof at f1.8 is a nice choice I have the same lens too I find if you try f2.0 or maybe a touch more it will increase the sharpness much more. my best rgds Necip.

The animal is beautiful Too bad about it being captive...such is life...I was looking at news on Serbia....captive mentally ill patients...I guess at least in your case thee fox is being well cared for..Very good.
Bob

I like the texture; the resolute eyesight and the DOF!Good moody photo!

Hi Carole

What a lovely fellow. I love the bright sharp eye. Excellent framing and great POV

TFS

Karan

lovely shot!
so sharp and sweet
great fox serie

hello carole :)

i think that of all your animal photos, especially the recent ones, i like the ones with the fox the most :)

to begin with, its the fox itself that holds our attention and keeps our eyes locked on to it..

secondly, i think its the very look of this photo that makes it different, better and special in comparison to the other ones... that look consists of the subtle, national geographic-like grain, the excellent light and the blur of course :)

i could use this photo to bolster support for higher ISO such as 800 :) i mean not only are those ISOs useful, they also lend a lot of 'character' and 'mood' to an image :)

thank you for sharing it :) and i must praise you for this work :) i wish this photo belonged to me :)

take care and have a wonderful day :)

Hi Carole,
This is certainly a beautiful portrait of the sly old fox. The lighting here is super super nice. I like your choice of aperature. I have the same lens (I think, if not, very similiar) and it's an amazing little lens. Curious if you ran this through a noise removal program...as it looks awesome for 800 iso. Very nice shot Carole...a true winner.
