A Mad Hare Day / Snowshoe Hare by Gary Fairhead
A Winter shot and I could barely fit him into the viewfinder with my 400 fixed focal length. This image has less than 10% cropped off the right side and 10% off of the bottom for composition.
The little black thing below the mouth is a seed casing or something stuck to him…I left it
Photographed at Shirleys bay near the Ottawa River Ottawa West Ontario Canada.
