Thursday was a great morning,got up at 5.30am,with just a hint of the sun about to appear, and drove to a new location for Hares,that I have been watching.Loads there but as usual all in the middle of the field,any how I walked down the side of the field,and saw this one about 50yds away,so got as close as I could and started to squeak him up,and after about 10mins he was 20feet in front of me,but got a bit upset at the shutter noise,and moved off but not to far.Also got some nice Roe deer shots aswell as they appeared from out of no where.all in all a good morning......

Lucky you. We don't have any hares down here (or Roe Deer for that matter). Very nice shot as it is but I would also consider leaving a litle more space around it if there is any to spare.

Hi Stewart,

Superb capture! A little tight in the frame though!

Hello Stewart.

I like this as is and think its an excellent capture.

My only nit is they is a small white out of focus spot just infront of the hare, I think I would clone it out. :wavey:

First class shot, the directional lighting really makes him stand out.
