A Snowshoe Hare falls victim of it’s classic enemy, the Lynx.
Photographed by Robert Walch, featured “The American North Woods / The Worlds Wild Places” form the Time-Life Series 1972 / 1988 seventh Reprint.
I own a few of these books, purchased from a local Oxfam. They contain pretty much everything you need to know about each “wild place” and are packed with stunning landscape and wildlife photography however none quite so dramatic as the above shot.
what an incredible image, other-worldly…do you know where i can get a print of it?
Hi Louise, I don’t I’m afraid, like I mentioned it’s from quite an old book here’s a link:

I’ve tried to search for Robert Walch, and no luck there either.. is an incredible photograph, I totally agree!

I’m sorry to say guys but if you look closely you can tell it is very fake!!!! and was not a photograph I am and experienced in detecting fake photography, and from my research and experience I’m afraid to have to declare this photo fake.
