Backlit
Snowshoe Hare - Every year these guys come out of the woods late afternoon to steal bird seeds at a public feeder. Some years we can count 9 to 10. I have only seen 4 this year. I always wanted to capture the light behind those wonderful ears but it never happened...Even though the sun angle was not low enough for what I wanted to achieve here, I am very happy anyway as I have tried to get this composition and the backlit to show the ears and fur for several years... but there is a lot that needs to happen to get that shot: 1) a sunny day 2) subject position and/or sun position 3) time of the day and finally time of the year for the sun angle... So I am satisfied right now but will still try again some sunny day.
