Doe at Dam w repost
Ran up to the Lock& Dam yesterday to check on Eagles. Found deer instead. There were a few Eagles gathering but later will be better. There were a group of deer most of them were between me and the sun. I got a couple decent shots but finally got this doe on the right side and liked this shot.
Olympus E 510 600mm eq 1/500 f9 ISO 100
I still have barns but wanted to share this one.

Kendall, nice, sharp deer pic. I would consider cropping the BG buildings at the top of the frame as they distract from the rest of the pic. The rest of the frame has a nice consistent palette of tans, light blues and the snow that compliment the deer.

Nice capture, Kendall. Love the catch light. I agree with Brian re the crop from the top; I think it strengthens this already strong image.

Make it three votes for the crop. Very nice lighting and pose, Kendall...good work.

OK, I will crop and post the new one. I actually had not thought about it.
