Rolled up for probably one of our very last hare shoots this year............. parked camper popped top got out of bus and freeze...hmm here we go again.only this time hare is somewhat larger. Hare pulls ears down I ignore it wait drink a cup of coffee all the time it can see me
Mmaybe 1015 mins later open tailgate gentle like get camera set up gear put camo and pads on
and again wait
lie down and very slowly close gap on hare.
difficult to be precise I can't track how long the crawl took it was SLOW............... probably spent 50mins up close with this hare
Once it relaxed it groomed. it fed it went back to sleep it groomed again and this image was it about to leave the stretch before it ambled off a little way and started feediing and I went to snag anuvver coffee
somewhat the worse for ware but buzzin'.
Half way through I nearly blew the whole thing had the giggles.watching a hare clean out it's ears with a monster of a back foot does me but it then licked it's toes clean.oh I know I know tiny things please tiny minds.
Anyways that's for another day note to self once again giggles don't help while making images
As framed I guess a snag of added canvas to the left wouldn't hurt but hey I like the honestly of it as is and also it's slightly away from me angles wise
