    Rabbit from the local park this morning. Still trying to get some decent action shots of these guys that don't show them running away! Crop, ACR, CS5, touched up some spots around ears and BG, NR, sharpening.

    Good job, love the light through the ears showing the veins. Really nice detail in the rabbit and love the background. Hard to make an interesting image out of something we've all seen so much of, but I think you've managed very well.

    Brendan - I agree with Hilary, nice detail and pleasing bg. Pose with head turn and comp work well.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Hi Brendan, good pose and the BG colours really suit this, giving good separation. Having the ears backlit certainly shows them off at their best, illustrating the veins and small hairs.

    If you can borrow one, or hire one, try the 2xMKIII I am seriously impressed with the quality, light & results. The 1.4xMKIII is good, but not as dramatic in change.

    Thanks, Steve, appreciate your feedback.
    I have heard some good things about the 2xMKIII, will have to check it out.

    Lovely low angle, pose and details Brendan!

    I can vouch with Steve for the new 2x! Excellent results so far from my use of it...

    Love the detail and a perfect exposure - superb shot - love it! Those ears are certainly bigger than UK rabbit's ears!!
