A slight variation on my last upload. I was showing Brett Lewis my rapidly expanding brown hare file today, and he took one look at this shot and exclaimed 'Jonny Wilkinson!'

Whether you are a Six Nations fan or not, I hope the shot amuses.

As a cricket fan myself, I am afraid I thought of Darryl Hare.

Sorry, but it is Friday afternoon.

Nice one David. He certainly has a stern look about him here.

LOL very amusing , swinging low perhaps ?
A fine study , nicely processed too.

He is obviously "stumped" with that 600mm pointing at him.
Nice image David.

With those feet it would probably be good at kicking an appropriately sized rugby ball as well.

Excellent image.

Nice one David... shows the typical setting for this location very well... am going to miss out this weekend and possibly next, I just hope that like the rest of spring everything is about three weeks late...

This one is probably kicking better than Mr Wilkinson is at present!! Move over Johnny, the future is hare.

You have some pretty evil-looking hares down there in Kent. Johnny is much prettier

A fine Hare image David but they are such godly creatures that it should be "Let us prey" after all they do have to put up with an awful lot.

Hi David, I thought something from 'Oliver' might have been better? 'More...'

Nice one.

Excellent title , although I was expecting to see something retiring hurt on a stretcher.
It's a really fine shot David. I would be very pleased with that.

Wonderful, It made me laugh :)

But Wilkinson's not a bunny, I'm sure..

Posted by Graham Goddard on March 13, 2010 at 7:44 AM

Let's hope we see Jonny doing that today !

Nice image David.
