Fox Glance 
Thetford Forest, England. Sam Morris / National Geographic Photo Contest)
During a regular trip through the forest, of which my actual intent was landscapes,
I encountered this stunning little Red Fox. The moment came as the light broke
through the clouds and trees, he turned with a glance of curiosity
and gave me the unusual composition I was after.
A scene I’ll never be lucky enough to see again in my life,
so was over the moon
I had managed to capture the moment.
