Just arrived back home from a great trip in the UK. Red deer are my favorite mammals and it's always a joy to be around them.

Hi Edwin,

Nice to see you continuing to push the creative envelope...your shots are always interesting. I do like the mood and feeling of this shot - simply magical!. I am left wishing that the background behind the subjects was just a tad brighter, making the silhouettes of the deer just a little more distinct or complete. And...as I look at the image more I think this is something that could be accomplished (if you chose to do so) with some careful editing/post-processing.

Cheers...thanks for sharing this...

What an amazing mood and light here Edwin. There may be a bit too much tree on top, maybe a landscape orientation would work if you don't lose too much detail with the crop.
