Mountain Hare
A different take from the previous post. I was cursing for much of the day as the hares were difficult to approach and I was getting knackered but it did mean that I tried a lot more enviromental images.

Canon EOS 1D MkIII with 500mm lens.

Fantastic shot Mark! I love the way the light just picks out the hare. Pano works well too.

totally different to the previous post, but I like it just as much. It was worth getting knackered for!

I really like this! Love the way the Hare is in a pocket of light with shade all around him to help him stand out :toast:
