Highland Red Stag

Canon 40D, Canon 100-400, f 7.1, iso 400, 1/1600, HH

Nice work Guy although I think that, despite being comical, the stag behind the rock is distracting and it would be a better image with just the one in the frame.

Kind regards,

Brett

Hi Nice picture i agree with Brett, I would prefer it without the other stag head.
it is distracting.

Lovely image but I agree with above, having just one stag would give the shot a lot more impact.

Nice shot, like the eye contact. I originally agreed that it would be better without the second stag, as it drags my eye, but I keep putting my thumb over it to see what it would look like without it, and somehow the image just isn't the same.

Nice work.

Captures the atmosphere very nicely indeed.

Hello and thank you for your comments.

Here is one with out the other stags head in, its a quick clone job for those that didn't like it in there.

For me I like the image better with it in but as most think it is better with out, its one I will have to keep for my self.

Thanks for your thoughts

Hi Guy,

Personally I prefer the repost. I feel it has a little more impact.

The repost is for me also.

I agree, the repost works better compositionally for me too. Although I like the image as originally posted I think if there was interaction between the two Deer it would work better.

I also prefer the repost.

A fine shot of a beautiful animal.

I like them both - perhaps the second has the edge.

Second image for me Guy,looks great alone with the BG,love the composition
