Another Buck
Was back to where I caught the other buck crossing the road and thought this was him at first but he grew a couple more points. I know not a great shot but it was early, cloudy, about to start snowing and it is handheld in a running vehicle. I will try to do better in the future. I caught one with his body better but his rack was lost in the background
Olympus E510 600mm eq f5.6 1/25 ISO 400 some crop

Nice looking buck indeed. The overall blurryness holds this back from really being anything more than a documentary capture though.

I like the natural setting and the view of the buck between the trees. I agree with Joel regarding the blurryness, though.

I agree with you all about the shot. Am trying to be good till Christmas to see if I can get the wife or someone to get me some faster glass.

I do like the framing of this shot, Kendall. It's too bad that circumstances prevented you from gaining a sharp capture.
