Black-tailedDeer in Snow

Gallery: WildlifePosted August 6, 201593 views6 comments

This is a shot that I took in my back yard when I lived in Washington state a few years ago and never posted. The deer would sometimes bed down there. In this case this young male didn't run off when I pointed a camera at him, I guess he was patiently waiting out the storm.

Nate,

Great capture of both the deer and the falling snow, just the right shutter speed devil

Hi Nate,

I think the snow adds interest to this image, but I also very much like the overall lighting and colours. This one works well for me...thanks for sharing it...
