Looking at You, Mountain hare (Lepus timidus), Cairngorms, Scotland
‘Deep snow drifts had left ridges and contours on the plateaux. Visibility was limited as strong winds buffeted the cornices and snow swirled down the valley. Across the bowl, the male hare moved slowly towards the female hare above it and stopped. For a moment the blizzard abated, allowing me to capture the hares in their special mountain environment’
