In the spotlight

Can't get enough of red deer in Holland. So hard to get and for me a real challenge. If they smell you, they're gone. If they hear, smell or see you, they're gone. Love them to bits. Especially when they pose for you in beautiful late afternoon sunlight.

iso 200 1/100 sec. f/4 full frame at 200mm.

No point Danny going after them then?
Just gorgeous light that we all wish for at that precise moment. Lucky ? Nah you gotta be in it to win it .
The look seals the deal for me .

Excellent! I love the way he is partially hidden and also the way the branches in the background mimic the antlers. There should be a Christmas bobble hanging from one of those branches :wink:

Hi Edwin,

Superb light, a hint of Snow and a wonderful setting. It looks as if he may have spotted you by the look he is giving.

Great stuff :toast: :toast: :toast:
