It's day 2 of my photography retreat in the Cairngorms in Scotland, and we are braving the weather to head up a mountain to capture images of mountain hares in the wind and rain.
How do you think I got on?

From what I saw in the video, the reason you probably didn't get close to the hares is because your guide didn't get you all to go low when you spotted one. From there you may have been able to slowly creep forward army style. Also, you were all so spread out, so were acting like beacons saying 'hey, look at me', and it wouldn't surprise me if the hares run off upon noticing you.
Just found your channel and am now working my way through all the content. I like the way it is real, and shows what wildlife photography is really like.
It takes a while to get used to the 200-600s weight. But mine is hardly off my camera now as I usually shoot birds. With wildlife the trick is to put yourself in a position to get close to the subject - easier said than done but practise helps.
I was out getting general nature shots yesterday and startled a rabbit, or rather, he startled me: I never knew he was there until he bolted. I could just see those hares of yours poking their little ears up behind the rocks around you after your group had walked on by... :)
what a creepy crowd
Very interesting photographs of hares. They are probably very difficult to get to. With such a long focal length of the lens, it is possible to use a tripod.
You got some terrific shots. I really enjoy my 200-600 lens. A bit heavy, but great range and clarity. Awesome trek!
Loving the content, and love the website! Red Deer on the list
"For Ducks Sake Slow Down" - Love it!! . Beautiful video thank you!!
beautifully done, i love the contrast of wildlife colors against the shrubbery and landscapes, enjoyed.
Wonderful, Jo. Well done.
