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.

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. Eric

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.

Nice capture!
