Red Deer-Cervus elaphus
Hi Guys,

Came back last monday from a great weekend in the UK where i hosted one of my workshops and had a great time with fellow UKNP photographer Craig Jones. Unfortunately i got a nice present in the form of the Swine Flu when i came home so i have been very ill since then and am only now starting to feel a little stronger and been able to process some of my images as my curiousity was stronger then my will to stay in bed after all those days..

So here's a Red Deer i shot at Bradgate wich was trying to hide from me within the bracken.... :cool: :biggrin:
Hope to post some more stuff soon and comment some more on your images when i feel better but for now it is off to bed again...

Greetings,

Jeroen Stel

Glad to hear you had a good time in the UK and hope your feeling much better from someone who also had it earlier in the year. :oink:

Smart picture with a nice overall feel to it. I thinks its captured well and shows the nice vegetation mixed up in the antlers. :toast:
