Taken from the car.
D2x's + 600mm AFS II.
1/320 @ f7.1
ISO 125.
Colour Mode II
Tone Comp less contrast.
Sharpening. None.
I cover two airfields as far as Hares go.
On one they are really skittish at the moment, whilst on the other I can usually drive up and they tend to freeze.
This one did just that. At first I was shooting its rear end so started car up and pulled level. Then I pulled further forward to shoot to the front. It didn,t seem that bothered and even managed to stick its tongue out at me.

Major.

Blimey, is this your pet Hare Major? You've managed an amazingly low angle, nice shot shot with plenty of impact.

After how many shots did you eventually let go of it's back legs?

VERY nice Major

Hi Major,

Superb... simply brilliant. This has so much impact with the tight close angle. Amazing to get such a clear shot, with great light and clear, unobstructed view of the face. Particularly jealous! I would happily give a limb to photo hares at such close quarters... Well done!
