That is one adorable little fawn! I love his pose with the leg coming forward, and that little head turn looks pretty cute, too.

A very different deer image, I think, and really good detail. To me the light looks really nice.

Lovely! The larger version shows excellent detail and even a catch light. The light is a bit on the harsh side, but you exposed and processed this well Howard.

Flawless techs and composition. Add to it a cute and endearing subject. That is no easy light but you dealt with it masterfully :toast:

Excellent image all around. Beautiful setting, focus, and detail and the cuteness is a 10+. Way to go!!
