I been photographing this 18 pointer for a while now and this time he gave an unexpected roar after a long period of silence right when a hind was in front, frightened the life out of her!!
Looks like it was taken in a deer park because of the surroundings, but it wasn`t.
I do find the light area by the antler tip a slight distraction, and maybe a bit of PS wizardry could tone it down a touch, if you felt the need.

Hi Brian,
Great moment to capture, is this one of a sequence or just lightening fast reflexes?
Let me know if you're coming up to Bradgate this year - it would be good to catch up.

Excellent moment captured. The look on the poor hinds face says it all.
