Nice Capture simon, the hare is my nemesis. !!
Exposure is fine, could probably do with a tiny bit more saturation/contrast to give the colours a little more punch. nice and sharp too, the 300F4 are nice sharp lense

Nice one !
I agree with Mark. Just simply dropping the gamma would help a bit.
Cheers

lovely shot

Simon, agree with a hint more of sat/contrast would help, but curves would give it that 'pop factor' then you would have a 'lovely shot'

If you can, I would also remove the green stem in the BG, as it does distract a tad.

Hi Simon, nice capture and I agree about the green stem.

thanks for the advice ,not sure how different this is! sadly the green fencepost looks worse cloned so i didnt bother

Hi Simon I think I prefer the original crop as the hare is not so central, but agree that perhaps the increase in saturation has emphasised the fence post. Not sure if this is an improvement, but increased curves, a tad on the lhs of levels and a fraction more USM. You have it all in the file it just needs a little tweak, hope you done mind the re post.
