Brown hare.
Nikon D4
Nikon300ml 2.8


Found a good site for Hares unfortunately there is a lot of shooting going on at the moment both legal and illegal people driving 4x4's all over the fields in the middle of the night.

It seems to enjoy that grass... I'm almost tempted to crop the photo a bit from the top.

Cheers,
Marko

:smile: I was going to suggest taking a bit of the bottom..

This probably means the hares to central in the vertical direction :wink:

Hi Keith,

I've got to agree with Marco about crop - I find the crop you used feels 'uncomfortable' - I think I'd prefer to see something closer to 4:3 (more like your camera took it), and probably with a touch more space behind the Hare. If you can't give more space on the right, then you need to shave some from the left hand as well as top/bottom!

:wavey:

Any hare shot's a winner for me :biggrin: I think Nick's cropping suggestion sounds good if it's possible, Nice shot as is though.

4:3 ??? Thats Olympus territory!!

I think Nick meant 3:2 for CaNikon……

The background looks a touch noisy on my monitor - is it a big crop?? still better than any Berkshire hares i have taken :toast: :toast:

Thanks guys must say that cropping is something that I have a bit of a problem with so thanks for that, Mike just got myself some noise reduction software so just need to learn how to use it. :confused:
