A fox runs across the frozen surface of a small body of water. There are reeds in the background. There is some snow on the ice, and he walks directly towards the camera.
His sly look suggests that he has something in mind. Perhaps he is hunting. He is in no hurry. The fox calmly puts one foot in front of the other...
The frontal encounter with the fox is given a special tension by the low perspective of the shot. The sly look and the raised front paw do the rest.
The shot is convincing not only because of the beautiful motif and the special moment of capture, but also because of the richness of detail, soft light and pleasant colours in a wintry atmosphere.
