Hi,

Someone has to post one... taken whilst walking to one of my locations for Fallow Deer, the only lens I had with me was the 400/2.8 which works very well at times for close ups. Couldn't back up any more so this is full frame, also it has recieved no additional sharpening apart from my usual capture sharpening pass on conversion.

All the best

Phil

Is this a sign that spring is here Phil?
How about the fallow Deer?

Simple, elegant, and positionally correct image ( some recent photos I have seen of them have the bell mouth horizontal)
