Hare Enviro ?
Does this work as a an enviro shot or would it be better to crop out some RHS?

F5.6

Personally I like any shots of hares. A common sight where I live but difficult to capture any images of.

I do think the dull light and subsequent slow shutter speed have led to a little softness but I think the composition does show the environment of this animal.

I like it as posted, but would apply a touch more USM to the head, and clone out the OOF stick that appears to be coming out of the hare`s back!

I like this Nick. I agree with the improvements suggested by Jeremy, except I would selectively sharpen the hare, and apply a some median blur (2 setting ) to the background as there is a bit of noise present.

Personally I think the Hare is a bit too central for it's size in the frame - I'd crop a bit from the RHS and bottom.

Crop abit from RHS and Bottom and selective sharp and you will have a very nice image

Great effort for a dull day. I quite like the composistion as it as. Because the hare is turned slightly towards you, i think you get away with it. The oof stick did not distract my eye, but cloning it out will only improve the shot. :toast:
