Janine, agreed, the deer were high on top of a hill, very bright day, but the deer were in the shade of woods, the white that looks like a house is a gable off a brown roof and a chimney to the right. They were very far away, but it all took on a different look with the magnification of the lens at that distance. I am tempted to remove them in PS. Maybe one evening I will spend more time on this. Unfortunately for my nature photography in my area, there have been a lot of homes being built in the old wooded and farmland areas. Everyone wants to live near these beautiful areas, while enjoying a relatively short commute to the city, but in doing so these areas are vanishing and becoming city. The deer are just making the best of the green areas they have left.

 

This township has bought up some of the farmland to keep what green areas we have left from being over developed into huge neighborhoods of McMansions with overwhelming car traffic. The housing collapse has also helped in slowing the demise of nature in this area. I run across many scenes like this, the deer and the houses. I suppose in that regard, the image captures the dilemma the wild life of Bucks County face, a scenario that is being repeated many places. Unfortunately for the wild life, I can't edit out the actual encroachment of man on their habitat with Photoshop. A call for good land management a stewardship of our natural  habitat. 

 

Thanks for stopping and commenting.
