Arizona Buck

Found a nice spot to sit and wait about a quarter mile from our camp site when this fellow came out of the woods following a couple of does. Very overcast conditions in thick wooded area and minimal light, hand held, cropped to vertical at 60% of full frame.

Nice head on look from this buck Mike. The lighting and detail are great. Good framing with the closeup brush and pretty good BG considering how brushy it had to have been.

G ood image of this buck in his environment, but I do wish those branches were not in the way of his ear. Great detail in the larger version which is a must to view. Thanks for sharing.

I don't mind the branches. The vegetation somewhat frames the buck. Love the look he's giving you. Very nice.

Fine portrait! One could wish for a cleaner background, but your choices maximized the situation.
