What a nice hare in its environment all ears and eyes. Never so far been able to nail one of these.

Thanks for your comment Barry I have found a few in my neck of the woods but they are getting a bit rare.

Nice picture, but the dead sticks right of the hare are a little distracting.

Beautiful hare. I suppose the sticks are problematic, but what the heck, their presence causes a bit of controversy
and potentially could stimulate a modicum of debate, although I wouldn't hold my breath, the way things are on UKNP! :confused: :eek: :rolleyes:

Fiddlesticks!!!

If you've engineered the encounter with Mr Hare, then you should have been aware of the sticks and moved your viewpoint or removed them so as to avoid them being in shot. If you chanced on the encounter, then fine, take the first few shots so you've got some in the bag, then start looking and scanning the frame for distractions such as the sticks. if you find any, then work out either if you can move, or get your subject to move, and in doing so avoid the distractions. It's something you can train yourself to do, but it does take effort to remember to do it - do it enough and eventually it will become second nature.
