Last Sunday it was the first day of Easter. So, I slept in, until my watch woke me at 4:45, because why not? (Well, lots of reasons...)

Anyway, the idea was to photograph foxes during the early hours around sunrise. Yes, shooting is exclusively done through lenses here. I am no monster.

After hiking for 45 minutes through the dark, very stormy night, no foxes were spotted.

Our hypothesis is that the strong winds had made those clever guys decide to stay holed up, and we really couldn't blame them, trying to keep our big lenses steady in the gales.

Thankfully, other riff-raff was happy to be shot instead.
