Hare stretch
From my current hare project one from tonight . After three sessions with these over the weekend the best bit was the breaky in the greasy spoon on saturday morning after a blank , thanks Mike .
A new venue from my previous post and will take some more recon to establish behaviour patterns . Evening light at about 5.30 pm when the wind had finally dropped enough for him to raise his head .A wait of nearly 2 hours for him to move took its toll I was desperate for a smoke .LOL

Very nice Mark,

Great low angle and pose of the hare. I might lose some off the bottom and right to move the eye off centre.

Cheers

Austin

Hey Mark, looks like he is under 'starters orders' :wink:

Nice one, worth the wait and frustration in not having a 'smoke'. :biggrin:

Mark these guys certainly can test your patience and endurance, but the result is well worth the discomfort, beautiful light.

I do like these hare images taken in the late afternoon sun. Having said that I would be happy with one taken in any light :biggrin:
