 A fox hunt - well, not a real one, the rider in front serves as the fox.

Unfortunately it was cloudy and raining (sometimes snowing) that day.

I rented a 70-200 2.8 L IS USM for that - cool lens, but unfortunately outside my budget to buy it. But renting is actually a good option, it wasn't that expensive.

USM, resize, USM, curves, saturation.

Nice shot but is it related with distance?

good focus and DOF, the moment is well captured. were gone for a closer crop (probably portrait orientation), if the tree at right and the hunter behind the tree at left had been cropped off the image would have had more impact IMO. the white balance seems to be incorrect, a little blueish overall
