Tender Moment
by Bill Maile
Another image from my encounter with a young piebald, part-albino deer last weekend. There were four PA whitetails here at the time, yet the mother, and what I assume is her oddly colored offspring, seemed to be attached. While the other two ran around, these two stayed close together while I was there.
As I tried making adjustments to increase the shutter with my friend's Rebel XTi I was using, I hoped for some kind of interesting pose. For a brief second, the young piebald turned it's snout up to the mother and genuinely appeared to plant a kiss, or at least try to rub noses with her.
Just a neat little scene. Basically same settings and soft result as before--ISO-400, 1/60th in low light HH, f-6.3 and 300mm. Thank you for any C&C as always.

Boy...that deer is just so peculiar looking...almost like some exotic species. Another good documentary shot and for that reason alone it's definitely a keeper!
Cheers...thanks for sharing this...
