Roo Deer
Last week traveling home from my work I met this roo deer.
I made a serie of pictures in different poses and compo's.
This time I choose this one because the deer isn't looking at me, for some reasing I like this one more then the others.

Please let me know how you think about it.All C&C welcome
700,00 mm, 1/400 sec, F7.1, ISO: 500

Great stuff Tom and wonderful light too.
Maybe the deer a little tiny bit over to the right might balance a bit better but no big deal. An animal i have yet to photograph.
Cheers

A good find. Perhaps composing the image with the deer over to one side, as opposed to being central, may have given a stronger composition. Still a pleasing image though and the area will definitely be worth returning to when the heather is in flower.

I agree about the deer being a bit too central, but otherwise very nice Tom.

Some nice light there, and nice setting, little too central as already mentioned but no big deal

Fine for me as it is, showing the roe deer in its natural surroundings.
