Brown Hare
Still working on Brown Hares and took this image the other morning. The frost was hard the previous night and this male came close to my hiding place. It is hard to see on a small Jpeg but he has got frost on the end of his whiskers.

Canon 1D MK11, 500mm Lens, 1.4x Convertor, 1/90, F5.6, ISO 200.

Well thank you for causing domestic dischord Danny. My Mrs really likes this as, it would seem, does everyone else. Me however, I'm uncertain about it. Perhaps it is the very unusual background that is unsettling me. I can't really put my finger on it but then hey... if it works for everyone else then obviously I'm the odd one.
All the best
Robert.

The 500 + 1.4 certainly works the old magic on the BG and FG - certainly gives the image a 'half light' quality :toast:

Brilliant. The colour palette really makes this one different.
