Good job capturing these. We saw lots of these in S. Utah a couple months ago. They are fast, and don't necessarily pose for you in the best light.

Wow -- love the 2nd shot. Shows the tremendous long ears so well. Might do some PPing to make it pop a bit, but great habitat shot.

Used the 70-200 at 200mm and cropped the photo a bit. The lighting was bad as the sun was setting so I was lucky to get that much. Watching them run through the desert is somthing else. All you see is ears bobbing up and down behind the desert bushes.

Nice shots. Have you PP them much? I would like to see a little more color saturation or whatever the guys on here do that makes pictures really pop!

I think thes could be GREAT shots....

No PS'ing other than a little USM and cropping and correcting the WB in the raw converter. Natural colors. If someone could steer me in the right directing for "popping" colors...

UPDATE! I feel :oops: :oops: :oops: They were posted in Adobe color profile. They are corrected now.

They look pretty darn good now. Did not see them before. You must get up early to capture them this time of year. Well done.
