Stampede
Taken at the same time as Ians when a dog off the lead chased a herd of red deer. Again full frame so have lost some of the antlers and would have preferred to get more of the legs in the frame but it all happened so quickly this was the best I could get. I liked the way the turf was flying as it showed what a stampede took place

Sigma 50-500mm

Mark, Andy is mad anyway :biggrin: Yes Ian I just didn't have time think about zooming out. Just as well I wasn't using Mark's lens or I might have just captured the deers middle :smile:

Good focus on the stag's eye, a shame about his antlers though. Still not a bad opportunistic image. :smile: :wink:
