Deer in the Mist

Gallery: WildlifePosted November 21, 2011257 views3 comments

Out early this morning to the local nature reserve to check on the critters. Foggy along the American River but the sun would break it up fairly quickly. Came upon a doe with 2 fawns of the year following her. Took this shot of her and one of them as they paused in going by. Shooting in the fog is a bit tricky I found out but a few adjustments and some cloning out got this to be more presentable. Comments and critiques welcomed.

This is an interesting and effective presentation! Nice. My only wish would have been to not have those obstructing weeds covering part of the fawn's body.
