When I was watching some fallow deer at a nearby ruting stand, this dark fallow buck, came out of the bushes. After walking around restlessly for a little while, he suddenly left the scene at a trot with its head up and disappeared permanently.

Nikon D80 @ 420 mm, iso 320, F4, 1/500 on a tripod.

Lovely Sandra, i would have liked the buck to be more to the left hand side of the image but still a very good image.Congrats!

Nice one, ditto for the buck to be more on the left but it looks like there could be an OOF bush on your right which would have been in frame then...

Echo the comments of the others but the pose and antlers catching the light are very nice :smile:
