Bambi 2

It was meant to be I guess..... nothing but Deer shots today! I ran into deer in two different locations, each with 2 young deer. This one was just laying in the snow a short distance from the road...I was afraid maybe he'd been hit and was injured but I soon noticed another young deer standing to the side of him. We turned around to see if he was ok and I took a couple of shots from inside the truck but when I opened the door he got up and they both took off running, then jumped a nearby fence, disappearing from sight. I was relieved he was just tired and not hurt!
She looks quite cozy and comfortable where she is. She is beautiful.

Wow, such a peaceful shot. I don't see them laying down much, especially if you're close enough to take a pic. And I love the framing.

I love the framing and the coloration of this shot. She seems quite content to look at you and have you look at her.

Very nice and I love the framing that gives it the look of a post card.

pretty creature and you seem amazingly close - she's clocked you for sure!

Nicely framed. i also like the twigs/tiny branches-did you add those. If not you did a great job of focusing on the deer. The manual focus on my camera would have certainly wanted to focus on the twigs. Very nice shot!

Well . . . if life gives you deer, shoot 'em? Er, photograph 'em! She certainly posed for you!

Another beauty. Good title. I used to have a pre-Disney hard back of the Felix Salter book. This image was on the cover.

Really beautiful! She looks like she's deciding if it's worth it to run or that she's safe with you... Like the editing also.

our town is overrun by deer at this time of year too, lots of people feed them, so you have to be on the lookout on major streets. It is still magical to me, each time I see them
