Hi Paul,

I think he's spotted you! :wink:

A great shot of the deer, showing it's habitat well.

Hello Paul nice capture.
Was you visiting Cannock Chase or do you live there. I only ask as I live right on the edge of Cannock Chase. :wavey:

I really like this shot. The OOF background and foreground lead the eye right to the buck.

Looks a touch too sharp to me, but a lovely picture none the less.

Beautiful shot Paul. Tiny niggle in that to me the oof tree trunk directly in line with the LHS antler is a tad distracting and might warrant a wee bit of cloning.

Cheers

Hi Paul,

Nice composition and subject matter but does look a little over sharpened or contrasty to me.

Regards

Rob

Hi Paul

Very nice image, with great eye contact. It does look a little contrasty, but uit's a minor nit.
