Catch me if can (2)


Brown Hare (Lepus europaeus) – Essex, UK.

Canon EOS 1Ds MkII, 500/f4, beanbag on car window.
Av exposure mode f6.3, 1/800, iso 400, AWB (converted to daylight in processing).
RAW image processed in Capture One; sharpened in Photoshop CS2 (amount = 100 percent; radius = 0.2; threshold = 0 applied five times); full frame.

Another shot of my new friend.

A beautiful capture no doubt about that, pin sharp and such an attractive animal. I always think though to show that it's in motion, and not holding a running pose for you, it would be good if it was panned at a lower shutter speed so the background was streaked.
Still fact is stonking shot, wish I could get one as good.

Hello Phil
Super defined image of the hare, very nice indeed. Is it in fact running or this one of those times when they walk along using this sort of running style?
Best wishes
