We're at the start of a 'health' week at work, which means there are various organized walks. Today's was at lunchtime (which is civilized), but tomorrow they start out at 6.45 a.m. with a walk organized by the RSPB. I'm gambling on the weather being ok for it, though rain is forecast overnight. Anyway, as ever I've been taking the camera out with me and getting far too many shots. But I really liked this one, which is an excuse to start a 'Horses' album. Nothing else in it yet, but I'm sure it won't stay like that for too long.
With all the amphibian activity I haven't paid too much attention to the foxes, but the old dog fox spent quite a while in the garden this evening. Here's three.
Camera note: all shots taken with the Sigma 105mm F2.8 EX DG macro lens.

26 Feb 2008Eric, for once I knew he was going to jump. I didn't quite get the alignment right though, but it's the best of that sort of shot to date.

26 Feb 2008Vulpes, yes he has a good set of teeth on him!

26 Feb 2008Elke, I like that photo too. I love the curiosity on his face as he's watching.

26 Feb 2008Adele, he does look remarkably relaxed in the shot doesn't he. Amazing energy from a standing start.

26 Feb 2008LOL! mark, of course. Perfect photo for you! We haven't seen Roofy in a while, but this old fellow started it all off. Here he is in July 2006.

29 Feb 2008I am simply amazed at your "fox" pictures.
I had one for a pet once and I never could get a picture of him. I would wind up with a picture of an empty bed and if lucky, the tip of his tail in the shot. They are quick.
