I followed this guy/gal around...but he/she kept behind brush and in the shadows. This was the best shot out of about 20 or so.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    well if you wanted to get rid of the branches then a zoo shot would do it but if you want a great capture you shoot them just like you did thumb.gif

    Brilliant Michael, I love it.

    No zoo shot could compare for a moment. The branches are just fine and belong - "context", to borrow from the flight Assignment.

    Michael, I love the coyote shot!

    I love coyotes! The setting adds interest to the portrait, IMO.
