Chital Deer on the fast track 2.
Normally this position of legs is preferred over the previous post. This happened to be very fast action and I was hoping to get all four legs in the air, but that didn't happen. Although disaapointed, but I'm not complaining.
Thankyou so much for your kind attention & views!

What a great shot! Great focus and background blur, good room in front of the deer, superb light. You can't beat it.

Hi Jagdeep,

I guess I'm "normal" in that I prefer this positioning of the legs over your previous post! I quite like that the one leg is firmly planted on the ground - to me it adds an extra degree of interest to the image. To my eye you nailed the techs on this one - the sharply focused deer stands out very nicely against the mildly blurred background. I'm surprised that all parts of the legs are so sharp given the shutter speed - did any of the other shots in the sequence show more blurred legs? I'm guessing you may have captured the limbs at the "peak of their action". Overall, vey well done (as usual!).

Cheers...thanks for sharing this...

Brad

You had just enough room to catch the full gait here - I like the hint of blur and lovely colors.

Great job in getting this difficult shot, the look and head detail are very sharp, well done.

Sweet action and lighting Jagdeep. I like that the face is nice and sharp while the legs are blurred a bit

Thanks friends!
Brad, I don't have many frames from this sequence, as this was very fast and this is about 90% of the frame.
