Photographing Foxes in Devon (part 3)
I had a great session with Mrs Fox and her cubs this evening. They are becoming relaxed in my presence now and so the hide is not now needed. I just sat quietly and watched the vixen and cubs at play. The vixen is getting really relaxed about my presence; she seemed quite happy to pose for pictures and this seems in turn to relax the cubs.
Apart from a short period at the end of the session the light was challenging (as it always is at this site) since the sun dips behind trees quite early, so there is no opportunity to use the really warm light of the ‘golden hour’. The site is also very tightly constrained and I had to work really hard to get nice clean backgrounds to the shots. Still, what a magic way of spending an evening! A couple of shots from the session are posted below:
