Hiya,

Seems like I haven't posted for ages. Been out for the first time since November and spent a week photographing hares and owls. This is straight from camera, apart from resize and sharpening for web. It needs a little tweaking and few distractions removing from the background. However, I just love the way the light penetrates through the hare's eye.

Canon EOS 1DSmkII, EF 600mm f/4 IS L, Beanbag, AV, ISO 200, 1/400sec at f/5.6 (-2/3EV)

Looks inquisitive... cleaned up and it will be a great image, but very nice as is.

Very 'wickerman' no wonder hares are so ingrained in folklaw. Great image.
