Fox curled sleeping portrait photography

A sleeping red fox curled into a tight ball lies slightly left-of-center in a vertical 2:3 portrait crop, the curled tail wrapping forward so the body occupies roughly the lower two-thirds of the frame with negative space in the upper third. The fox is an adult red with warm russet and apricot fur, closed eyes, soft ear fur, visible whisker tips, and a slightly damp nose; position the head tucked under the tail and angled three-quarters toward the viewer. The setting is a quiet forest floor with scattered brown leaves and muted moss beneath the fox, background occupies the upper third and remains softly blurred to suggest depth. Warm side light from the right at golden-hour quality creates gentle rim highlights on fur and soft, long shadows on the left. Textural detail focuses on fur clumps, fine whiskers, and the velvet inner ear while leaf surfaces show faint veins and matte texture. Render as wildlife-photography with naturalistic color balance and minimal grain for a polished poster-cover look. Keep focus shallow so the fox's face and nearest fur are crisp while the tail and background fall gradually out of focus.
