September in Yellowstone (Part 3)

Fall brings about a boost to wildlife activity in the park. Most visitors come to see and photograph the elk and moose ruts, and I have done that many times too, but this fall I spent countless hours with a very friendly fox.

A red fox surveys her surroundings as the morning light floods the valley. Captured with a Canon 7D and 500/4.0L IS + 1.4 TC III in aperture priority mode with an exposure bias of + 2/3 at ISO400, f/6.3, and 1/500th of a second. The camera was mounted on a Gitzo 3540XLS with an Induro GBH2 gimbal head and custom long lens support.

The camera was mounted on a Gitzo 3540XLS with an Induro GBH2 gimbal head and custom long lens support.
