Wildlife photograph of a red fox in a first-snow forest, standing alert on a snow-dusted fallen log, head turned toward the camera, ears pricked, thick russet coat with white chest fur and black legs. Soft morning light filters through snow-covered spruce branches, large out-of-focus snowflakes falling in the foreground, a quiet blue-grey forest background with gentle bokeh. Shot with a 300mm telephoto lens, shallow depth of field, crisp fur detail, natural pose, fresh paw prints in the snow beside the log, no people, no text, no logos, no fences or cages.
