Lovely shot Simon :toast:

No real nits but there are two little specs above the ears and one more on the right maybe dust bunnies that I think would look better gone :smile:

Good sharp shot. The light has caught the whiskers well and I like the surroundings.

been trying for these this morning,, from 3am.. got a few enviroshots. Colours are nice, composition is spot on. and the lighting is brill. the only improvement i can see would be to remove the two bright spots above the ears.

Cheers

Great lighting and pose Simon but I think a slight head turn towards camera would have been spot on. Everything else is perfect. :toast:

Does it for me Simon. Flies - the bane of the wildlife photographer's summer existence. Why do they always swarm around your head in their thousands but when that might add something to a shot only turn up in ones and twos?
Love it. :toast: eric

Thanks for the comments and advice guys ,the light objects were in fact as Eric pionted out Flies and there were millions until i took the shot ! . Understandably technical crit is going to"swandive"at the moment but a gd comment is just as helpful .

A lovely hare shot Simon. Personally I think I would remove the three largest oof dandelion heads from the background but not a major issue.
