The chase
Sitting in my self build hide photographing a red deer stag. Moments later a wild boar rushed out of nowhere and attacked this deer. Normally it's the other way around but this boar was different. Very brave fellow.

iso 200 1/160 sec. f/4

Wow! Now that is a NH encounter to behold.. Very well seen Edwin and well recorded in all aspects. The shape of the deer and the flicking of the snow with the boar help tell the story. Thanks for sharing.

I really love how this is captured as a silhouette and the background lighting is superb. I can't decide whether I would have liked just a little more room on the left-hand side. Either way a stunning image. :toast: :wavey:
