Freeeeze!!!!
And he did :D This was a bit of a lucky shot. I knew he was about to jump but I didn't know when. Luckely I focused manualy. Hope you like it.

It is a incredible shot, it is a shame that his legs are down and not stretch....

Very funny!! Did you give this a burst of frames or was this it? Would have been very nice with stretched hind legs but this is cool regardless. Great timing :toast:

Thanks everyone :wink: This shot is out of a burst of 5. I choose this one because I like the 'hanging' pose. A bit of a cartoon when he falls straight down. Also this is the most sharp one.

Superb! Have tried this a lot, but my hares always manage to jump in the middle of rushes and are totally obscured. Well done. Great work setting up in anticipation. :toast:
