    Cool looking fellow and tough capture. So hard to see, white on white. No wonder they hide so well from the owls and such.

    Very nicely done Gem. As Iggy said ... tough subject to expose.

    Thanks, guys!

    I only spotted the first (which led me to the others) because the tips of his ears were still brown. Been on the lookout for them since it started snowing earlier this week, mostly because I wanted some practice in exposure for these kinds of shots (and I have to say, I'm pleased with how most of them turned out!)

    Very nice Gem. As others have said, you really nailed it on the exposure with how you got these hares to "pop" so well against that background. Looks like the lighting was definitely in your favour also.

    Thanks, JAS and Redneck They were mostly in shaded areas rather in direct sunlight, which helped a lot.
