D700 Sigma 500mm f4.5 @ f5 ISO200 1/800s
Booked today off ages ago to get some pictures of the rut.
Looks like the rut isnt in full swing yet? Mixed groups of males and femals and the stags still seem fairly friendly too.
Wonderful shot. I think a little cropping on the top wouldn't harm because of the dark tree. I think it takes to much attention away from the deer.

Nice Fallow Buck head shot.
I quite like the top as it is.
They haven't started in Wyre Forest yet either.
Is this a park deer ?
Cheers

Hi Paul,
Nice shot. As is or with the crop, both work IMO. Still not started properly here in West Suffolk, the Reds in Thetford/Kings Forest are roaring, but thats about it.
Regards
Rob
