Jack Hop

I managed a shot of this jackrabbit as it scampered by yesterday.

Specific Feedback Requested

Cropping? Background?

Technical Details

Is this a composite: No
D500, Nikon 200-500 lens, monopod, 1/2000th, f 5.6, 750mm, ISO 640, AI Clear, cropped to 1440 x 1143

yeah, the background is a bit bright, but the hop is pretty great. Shows off those feet really well. Wish it was a bit sharper in terms of focus. The shutter speed looks like it was fast enough. Have never shot these guys, but would like to. We have snow shoe hares here and all I’ve ever seen are tracks.

Hi Dave, I’ll echo what Kristen said in terms of sharpness and pose - a little soft but a fine pose captured. Shows off the dynamics of this species quite well.
