Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit...
I've been keeping busy, so not had much time to post lately. Thanks for looking and commenting on my last post.

This time I've been working on the local wild rabbit population. I'm lucky to have access to a private meadow that has a fairly large population of these mammals and I've been working with trailcams to scope their habits. This was the first photo I took from the hide, I now need to capture them with a more pleasing BG.

Techs: Canon 7D, EF300mm f/2.8L IS USM II lens, handheld. ISO800, 1/100th sec, f/2.8. Processed in CS6, Nik Color Efex pro and Dfine 2 for NR.

Thanks for looking! :wavey:

Really want to take some bunnies when I get over to the UK. I like this but might tone down the greens a tad. :toast:

They always make good subjects. Nice one. Our dog brought one in like this before we went away. It couldn't sit like this though :frown: :frown: Cheers

Agree about toning down the greens and perhaps a little more room around it for me. Tidy bunny though :wink:

Great image Paul. Perhaps a little more DoF to get all the coat nice and sharp? I like the BG as it places it in its habitat. Look orward to more bunnies, something we don't see too often on here.

Slight nits covered but still a good looking image, Paul.
