Lovely stuff! Pure arrogance, as has been said!

Being hyper-critical, it's a shame that the stag's back is in line with the 'horizon' on the brown hill - he seems to disappear into the background a bit as a result.

Great shot! You can tell he thinks he is the king of all he surveys!

You must have some Viet-Cong style tunnels going on up there :wink:
