D3 + 600mm AFS II + 1.4 conv.
1/160 @ f5.6.
ISO: 400
Ex Comp -0.3EV>
Taken from the car on a bean bag.

The farther you are awy from this Hare the more blue it looks.
Something I have never seen before so am real pleased with the find.

What a handsom beast he looks as well.

It must be a big bean bag Major !! I hope the tyre marks wash off it!

Nice image and a good looking creature to boot!

Another great Hare shot Major, I have just found a site a few minutes from home that has hares on it.. Perhaps you wouldn't mind dropping me an e-mail (PM) with some ideas about set-ups and times etc when is best to captures these guys..?

Kind regards,

Brett.

Never seen one of these Major, thanks for showing it. Nice shot BTW. Quite a young one would you say? Perhaps we will see a string of quality silver hare shots over the next few weeks?

What a beautiful animal! Never seen one like this before either, amazing! Lovely shot too. Would be nice to see it next a regular coloured hare!

Very strange looking! The background really brings out that blue element
