Today, for the first time this year, I went on a bike trip. It was hard. Wet clay path and complete lack of condition. This herd of deer was resting on the sunny meadow. And I scared them.
I have been interested in photography all my life and remember quite well developing my first black and white films myself... My favorite subjects are...
Um. You must have scared them after the photo. They don't look too anxious. I came across some deer in a neighbor's yard the other night. Two of them (probably adolescent males) were up on their hind legs fighting. I didn't scare them either but they did get out of the road for me.
i like the foreground out of focus grass which helps to frame the herd and give the impression that they are undisturbed and unaware of you (at least for the moment). You will be aching tonight perhaps after all that exercise - hope the bike survived in tact.
