I sure hope I'm not boring all of you. Here are the final images in the Kit Fox series. I have a couple dozen more keepers but they are all similar to what has been posted thus far, so this is it. Here they are!

You can find Part 1 Here
and Part 2 Here


C&C always welcome

Jason

Thanks Socrate! I'm kind of partial to that one as well. They were such good models!

Jason,

These are stunning. Very difficult to select a favorite. I really like #2, 4, 5 and 6. I hope you are going to frame and hang some of these. Fantastic shooting.

Another extraordinary series Jason, absolutely wonderful. I like #6 the best out of this set, but #2, #3 and #4 come in a close second.

Are you kidding me? No one in their right mind could be bored with these. Fox kits are on my list of things to get. Would give two teeth to get shots like these. Bruce

Absolutely stunning shots Jason. And the bokeh really makes them stand out nicely. Great piece of work

Thanks Bruce! I've been sifting through nearly 200 images for the past couple of weeks now and they are beginning to wear on me. It's been a good learning experience though. My own eye has become much more critical and I've been able to part ways with many images, that, in the past I would have kept.

Btw... The Kit Fox is a species of fox. They are about the size of a house cat and they are closely related to the Swift Fox. From what I've been able to gather they were once tought to be a sub species of the Swift but I think that designation has changed. I'm not sure.

Glad you enjoyed them!

Jason

To everyone here,

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop and take a look. It is always a pleasure to be able to put your work in front others and it's even better when it is so well received. As I said in an earlier post. The evening this shoot took place was truely magical. Everything came together and it was like "shooting fish in a barrel" for the lack of a better phrase. All I had to do was push the button. This ranks right up there in the top three enjoyable shoots in the last twenty years for me. ( I've shot video for twenty years... this slr stuff is still a hobby for me. )

So again... Thank you.

Jason.

Another nice series, Jason. I really like the #3 & 4 shots with an OOF fox in the BG and good balanced composition. Lighting is wonderful too.

Yes, out on the West Desert area west of Salt Lake City. About a 2 &1/2 hour drive on gravel and dirt.

Here is a snapshot of the area I took as I headed back to the car that evening.
