Sunset 06_17_05.jpg

Wanda and I made some new friends today. Richard and Kenny Crookston, whom we had never met before, emailed me this afternoon. They said they had seen my PAD project and enjoyed my wildlife photos. They knew where a red fox den was located in their area and invited us to come photograph the foxes. We were thrilled at the chance. So we agreed to meet so they could show us the foxes. What great young men and hosts they were. Thank you Richard and Kenny :^)

You’re a lucky couple to meat such nice people. And the picture is great. Full of young life and happiness in the soft light of a great morning. I'm impressed.

Bill, with two PADs and your other galleries we have seen a lot of images from you but I think this may be your best. Definitely one of my favourites. Like others have said the light, subject, selective focus and background hills and compositions are perfect.

Oh no, I've done the double click thingy again :-)

Ideal magazine cover, did you shoot it with that in mind?

I always love your shots, but this is one of my personal favorites for everything to exposure and composition to photographic eye. Wonderful shot young man.

This looks like something out of a fairy tale. I love the composition. The light, especially the glow on the sharp foreground, gives this image the feel of an illustration in a good book. It is beautiful.
