Mom?

Gallery: WildlifePosted December 1, 201340 views3 comments
This was taken on Friday morning and this doe may be the mom to the 2 fawns I posted yesterday. I took this not too far from the 2 little guys but I forgot about it when I was writing up the info. I really like does. They are so sleek and elegant and usually a very doting parent. Full frame image with only slight tweaks to the sliders. Added contrast to help her stand out better. Comments and critiques welcomed.

Tech Info

Canon EOS 60D with EF 70-200mm f/4L at 154mm

Peter, Yes she is a beauty. Nice image. You did well to use the two large trees to create some interest around the deer without detracting from the subject.

The image quality of recent posts has noticeably improved, color and clarity. Different equipment? No teleconversion? Hmmm.

Peter, another nice deer photo. I also like the framing with the trees. It does seem your point of focus is more on the body rather than the eyes, at least in the larger version. Always enjoy seeing your deer photos. Thanks for sharing.
