Fight,fight,fight
Bonjour
Here is a picture of hare fighting that I took during the spring.Fight in hare are quite common but are very hard to get. The main problem is to get both "beast" parallele to the camera.
Fight useally last a few seconds....and of course it is all about sex.....
Taken with mark2n and 500mm The picture has been crop little
Bonne journee

Great action perfectly captured. I also like the moisture droplets flying about although I might be tempted to get rid of the larger one to the right of the right hare which rather catches my eye. A very minor point and super work as is.

One of the best hare images I've seen in a long time - perfect freeze action and flying dew as well - you're too good at this Frederic :biggrin: :toast: :toast:

Very, very nice image - the DOF is perfect and you've really captured the right moment.
