The swift fox is now endangered in 90% of its historical habitat range.

"The swift fox, is one of the smallest foxes in the world, and is only found in the Great Plains of North America. This fox is only about the size of a house cat, standing about 30 cm high and weighing about 2.7 kilograms. The swift fox gets its name because it can reach speeds of up to 40 km per hour. At one time the fox could be found in great numbers all over the Canadian grasslands of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta. Their U.S. range included several states between North Dakota and Mexico."

Boy was I ever lucky to get this shot. I feel very lucky to have gotten the very slim 10% chance of seeing and being able to get a shot of this beautiful creature. It moves so fast, quickly, Swiftly. Such a majestic animal.


Really proud of this one, definately one of my favorite photos I have ever taken. I purposely chose not to frame the feet however, To give it a feeling that its legs were slightly longer.
And also to crop out it's nut sack, and the poo at its feet. LOL!


Don't just view, comment!! I always look for constructive criticism, to help make my photography better. If you can't figure out anything to fix in this shot, a simple "Nice shot" is cool too!

Nice one. You got like a 300 mm lense?

But im not sure about the composition, its not really a close up of his head, but you cant see his whole body either. I would either crop it a little or show his entire body including feet. ( if you got that on the original pic ofc ).

I dunno what you mean about the composition.
I personally think the composition is perfect.

It follows rule of thirds, and if you have a subject looking to the left, you compose to show the side he is looking towards.

did you read description?? Unless you wanna see a fox penis and balls I took the photo to not include them haha.
