I think Edwins use of the words 'nice and soft' is a bit unfortunate for a photograph but I know what he means. Perhaps the word gentle is more appropriate. This hare certainly looks relaxed and I like the gradation of the background. Nice one.

Lovely gentle tones work well with a relazed animal as you have here.

You know your Hare's sir!!

Many thanks everybody for your comments.
Mark I do actually talk to them as much as they will allow as daft as it sounds.
(I do make sure there is no one about though) :biggrin:

Excellent shot, I love the hares expression. I really like hare pics as I personally find they're a really hard subject to get (i've only managed three successful hare shots all captured at very close range).

Very, very nice. The soft lighting and OOF background are both wonderful.
