Took my bike this time, I wanted to follow the rutting calls of the red deer. I did manage to spook the big guy though, despite it being dark and me being stealthy...ish. But managed to sneak up on these two and get a few shots, unfortunately a little slow even at ISO 1250. But the eye is pretty sharp, so I kept it. Any crits please do tell!

Hi Neil
Nice interaction between the two young stags. For me too much foreground - it would have looked better if they had been lower in the frame and showing more of the trees in the background.

Neil, picking up on David's comments on composition, I think it may be worth trying a pano crop. Andrew

Looks like I am going back to find them again ;) I agree, I should have included the trees, give a greater sense of scale. Thanks guys!
