Rabbit kitten in evening light – If you can find the right location then photographing these adorable rabbit kittens must be one of the easiest, the most relaxing and fun creatures that you can ever work with. I say again, though, IF you can find the right location. This image was captured a few years ago, in Norfolk, in a field that was figuratively, not literally, full of rabbits! The principal warren system had many entrances and it seemed like I’d struck gold in terms of the number of rabbit babies that were scattered about. The warren was also near to a busy side road that had a footpath running alongside and so the rabbits were relatively acclimated to the presence of people and dog walkers. As the last few hours of evening light approached I’d simply wander casually into the field, before many of the rabbits had emerged for their crepuscular feeding, and I’d simply lie down near what I’d identified as the busiest part of the warren. With my camera resting on my camera bag and me concealed behind it I then had the (not very) arduous task as lounging around, enjoying the warm evening light and waiting for the first inquisitive pair of ears to emerge. With this particular image it is worth noting that there’s a very dark background, probably a distant hedgerow in shadow, and these very dark areas, much like very light areas, can very easily confuse the cameras perception of light. As I always do when the light is consistent I set my aperture first, usually F4 with a subject and circumstance such as these, and then, ensuring that I can maintain a minimum shutter speed of 1/500sec, just in case some action kicks off, I set a corresponding ISO. With my exposure set manually I am then free to shoot how I like, knowing that if the rabbit is in the direct sunlight then, irrespective of the background, my exposure will be correct. As the sun slowly sets however I always keep checking my histogram and periodically decreasing my shutter speed to reflect the falling light.
