Lads,
I lived amongst you for five years, and I found that the only reason the streets were clean on a Saturday and Sunday morning was because the local foxes had a bit of a taste for the coleslaw tossed off the late night kebabs in the center of town. I can deal with the public smoking by fantastic Mister Fox if he sweeps the streets. Of course, I didn't own a chicken coop or raise rabbits! ;-)
Lots of happy puppies in the photo. Do they really care what they are chasing so long as they get to go racing around the countryside? The pomp and circumstance of the hunt really is quite a visual spectacle.
Some of the hounds look a bit blurry, do you have any at a faster shutter speed or was it intentional to show the motion? I think I'd prefer it more still (but that's only my opinion, and I'm by no means a pro).
Love images 2 and 7 off the associated online gallery.
Hope that you had a good holiday.
Mike
