Ralph bit Jamie’s finger just before I took the picture, making for a fun scene with the two ferrets and nine rabbits. Thanks a lot to Jamie and Clarisse for having me along for the day. More black and white action shots to come and hopefully a written and photo-essay once I’ve been ferreting more next year.

A few pictures from my recent day spent photographing ferreting near Sittingborne, Kent. The action was shot in black and white but I took a few snaps in colour towards the end of the day and I’ll put a few of them up here. The above nets are used to cover the holes of the warren to entangle rabbits as they attempt to escape from the ferret below. I didn’t realize before, but fresh blood is such a vivid, bright red - a colour rarely seen.

I’ve been in a serious photo-production drought because I don’t have access to a negative scanner or darkroom so have been relegated to trawling my photographic history for pictures that didn’t make the cut, but I still think are interesting. A few more to come.
