    Hi John, with the head angled slightly towards you, your DoF is slightly compromised, however, nose to ear looks sharp, so well done. Good call on the low POV, just makes it. Having the second rabbit in the BKG isn't great IMHO, but just my take, others may disagree. good to see Daisy's too, across the pond.

    Hello John,

    A cutie of a Cottontail, very sweet Super framing and I like the head turn, was he aware of you at all?

    The little flowers add a lot to this image. Not so sure about the other character in the BG, wish he was more to the right and not quite on top of the subject

    Colours look good and sharpness is there. Noise is minimal for ISO 4000, nicely processed too - very well done! Love the eye and those small ears with little pink veins... such a delicate little creature, a pleasure to view!

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea

    That's a beauty John,it's much more similar to our rabbit in the UK, than the hares we post. John our rabbit originally comes from America,but I'm unsure where think it's south?? It's a lovely frame love POV head turn and the detail love the cocked ears aswell,fella is listening to the shutter no doubt

    Cracking detail John,Steve's right you are making some cracking pictures of late !!
