Lovely image,a tad 'tight' in the frame for me,great pose caught well done :wink: :wink: :wavey:

I would agree with being a little tight. Good overall image but I'm not sure about the fern growing out of the head. Otherwise there's a good pose there and well captured too, well done !

A super capture and pose Mike. Isn't it always the way, that you always seem to find/see your subject just as you are packing up to leave.

I prefer the second image for the space, and just a small crop on the left to make the deer less central would work well imho. Nice work.

Nice crisp, simple image Mike. If I was being really picky, I'd have left a bit more space on the right for the deer to 'move' into. :toast:
