We pulled over at the side of the road to watch some Birds of Prey, there was a dead rabbit at the side of the road, and this little head popped up from behind it. Couldn't make out what it was at first so we pulled the car right up beside where the rabbit was and sat and waited. A few minutes later a beautiful little Stoat appeared and had a real struggle trying to drag the rabbit back to its Warren. After getting the rabbit into the long grass the Stoat started eating and we had the great priviledge of him allowing us to watch. A load of my first shots were all blurred, thought I'd missed a very rare moment, but thankfully sorted out my settings! I've only ever gotten very brief glimpses of Stoats, so this was a very special and maybe once in lifetime moment for me; WOW!!!

Zabriskie Point in Death Valley, California. Taken september 2005. I thought the subject demanded b/w-conversion due to the strong pattern of rocks.

This dog belongs to a friend of ours. He is a 5 year old with the most stunning head and lovely temperament. Every time he is around I can't help but get out my camera and start snapping away.
