I got most of my way through editing my fox shots from this past weekend. The more I use Lightroom, the more I appreciate its features in being able to sort through a day’s shoot and do very quick editing of the keepers, shots destined for the trashcan, and the best of the lot. More shots are now up in my nature photography gallery.
I mentioned in the prior post that perhaps the ultimate sign of being with trusting wildlife is if they go to sleep in front of you. I suppose it also offers up a sign they don’t expect any entertainment from you either. Once you get the shot of them sleeping, there isn’t much to do but watch them sleep. It can be quite a peaceful zen moment.




Very nice capture ! I like this …
Hi Mark,
Great capture, and love the story behind it. Last year on the way to Moab Utah, we came upon a den right beside the freeway in a culvert. We drove back around and parked quite a distance behind where we’d seen the mama fox go in…we would occasionally see ears pop up, but they never came out until we put our gear away, got in the car and drove past them! I understand your frustration! Cheers….
Oh my goodness, you really are a fox whisperer! And the previous fox photo was just as cute as they get.
I’m glad you pointed us to the gallery – it’s also nice to see a dandelion photo that captures the beauty rather making me wish I wasn’t opposed to herbicides on principle.
Hey Mark, what a great oportunity for you, and you did a great job capturing this cute critter.
Beautiful image of the kit sleeping. I’ll have to read more about how you found the family in the other blog notes later…Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Have to say that I practically gasped when I saw this one, Mark. I’m sure that it was a completely peaceful (and blessed) moment for you. I looked at the other images of this little guy as well. Excellent captures!
Such a cutie…
Now this one makes me want to curl up next to him, nuzzle against him, and just rub his cute little head. Another wonderful shot, Mark.
