Stag at sunset

Hi all

One from today, was out photographing the runt and got this young sstag skylined as the sunset. Few tweakes in lightroom and a bit of sharpening.
Techs D300 300mm f4 and 1.7tc 1/640sec @ f6.7, tripod

Just realised I have posted the one that has not been dedust bunnied so I know they are there -sorry about that.

As always thanks for looking and all critique welcome

What an attractive image, Shaun.I like the pose and colours very much, but I think it needs a slight rotation though.

Don't mind the slant but the sensor needs a clean ;)

Now that is what you call an excellent silhouette.

A lovely silhouette Shaun. Nice BG too (minus the dust spots)
