john_h.1 5 Posted March 27, 2008 An amazing thirty seconds. Spot deer the moment I arrived for sunrise, quickly adjust settings and position tripod, twenty seconds in take the shot, five seconds later furious dog barking ensues, dear runs. One minute later, the light changes to overcast wet grey. Shoot over. Link to comment
copeg 0 Posted March 27, 2008 A very beautiful shot, esp. under the conditions. Fantastic silhouette (being able to see the antlers so well) and great sky... Link to comment
john_h.1 5 Posted March 29, 2008 To fill out the story a bit, a freind arrived at the same scene with me with a film camera and, in that short window, managed to get serveral shots. There's something to be said for not fiddling with white balance and other menus. Asking locals about good locations is often useful which is the case here. Link to comment
alecee 0 Posted September 20, 2009 Your passion is admirable but image a bit too bland to make an impact, look like graphic art. Link to comment

john_h.1 5 Posted June 6, 2012 I never asked for one but, if I do, I'll keep that in mind. Link to comment
alfbailey 1 Posted March 30, 2013 I like it very much. The bands of colour with the Deer outlined perfectly is like the proverbial pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.A classic example of where "less is more"Compliments & best Regards Alf Link to comment
joe_ferrara4 0 Posted October 27, 2014 I enjoyed the photo, at first, as a reminder that one can photography wildlife without a telephoto lens. The placement of the deer is good and being able to see the antlers and tail in outline are great.After looking for another moment or two, it bothered me that the topmost part of the sky is green. It doesn't seem natural. It doesn't ruin the photo for me, but is something I notice. Link to comment
