Have one or two more boxing Hares but its been hard work to get exactly the shot I wanted. Hope there is still time as Hares do box all the year round all be it in moderation.
Dont know if this works or not. If the truth be known I am not at all happy with it, but for those who are not familiar with Hares habits just wanted to share.

Great wildlife shot. What nature photography should be all about really.

Love these kind of "busy" shots - they all seem to have their own agenda!

I agree with John R. Nice to see some inter-action. Lots going on and I find myself looking at the picture for longer because of that.

I think I know whats missing Major - an on-the-deck PoV - it's a great behavioural capture and nice to have on file :toast:

But imagine the same shot off the deck - AWESOME :wink:

I think it's fine Major and exhibits the interaction between the four animals very well.
A pano crop would work well too IMO. :toast:

It works for me Major, its a shame the light wasn't a bit punchier for you at the time of shooting; some shadows would have lifted the image I think!.
