Hare portrait.

Still struggling with recalcitrant vegetation of course, but I was pleased with this one despite the grass across its nose. I've been trying all spring to get a reasonable hare shot without success but this one came along while I was trying for some partridges. Nothing to worry about yet Major!
C&C welcome.

A fine image Eric and well composed too. The grass across the nose doesn't bother me in the slightest as you've got a good clear view of that eye.

Eric nice photo, I would love to get some pics of hare's,,
hope you enjoyed this morning, and thanks for point out the white throat

I dont know about that one Eric. I am always looking over my shoulder
Its looking good Eric. This time of year with all the vegetation about doesnt help, but Mr hare has to breath so to speak and even he has to venture out on to the tracks and grassy lanes so he can get a view, perhaps then is the time to catch him. This one stands out nicely from its competing surroundings and if you look carefully you can see where he has been having a good old nibble.

A very nicely framed and detailed shot Eric

I think there's just a little bit of cyan/blue in there - if you've used the click white feature in Bibble open up the Adv tab and if there's a figure in the tint box change it to a 0 or just lift the colour temp a bit - the cast is most visible in the grass between the hare and the left frame edge, especially the two big blades bent down towards the hare.

But as I said, it's a great image Eric

Very nice image indeed Eric. Really shows that 'bold eye' off to good effect.

Lovely shot Eric , nice comp and surroundings , like it lots

Andy...

Alan

Works for me-Nice portrait with a good comp

Dave

that looks good to me too Eric, nicely done. I like it being surrounded by grass, it shows its natural surroundings very nicely yet still shows off the hare well.

Matt

Very nice shot of a hare in its natural environment en well composed. The grass before the nose doesn't bother me at all

Hi Eric, a nice shot that works for me. The comp. is good, and the Hare seem not to have noticed you. No nits!

Hi eric - a really nice summer hare portrait. Well done sir.



Mark

Has a nice look and feel to the shot. I think it is a little dark - lots of green can fool the metering. Good comp, would have liked to have seen the original.
