Brown Hare 'portrait'
This youngster was photographed near Stonehenge out of the car window and eventually walked alongside the car.

Hi David,

As Larry said the detail is amazing (look at the small veins in it's ear!!). You really have produced a stunner. That eye is amazing!

Regards

Rob

Hi Dave

Eye-popping detail and sharpness, the hare is caught superbly. I would prefer a slightly less 'busy' background to really set the hare off against, but that is a minor point, that eye certainly grabs your attention when you look at the image.
