During a snow shower a fallow deer came from the shelter of a coniferous wood and overlooked a plain. Comments and critiques are most welcome and appreciated.

You can certainly feel the wind and chill factor on this one Sandra. love the colour.

Might suggest loosing half the space on the lhs?

Delightful and I'm amazed you have had so few comments. As for cropping I think I would try taking a small amount from the LHS (as Steve suggested) but also some off the bottom of the frame. This is the type of picture I'd like to see large and on a wall. Nice one.

Personally, I think you have the composition right, with the animal exactly on a third. Lovely shot. I feel cold just looking at it.

Comp just right for me as well. Excellent atmospheric scene with the added interest of the deer.

I think I would crop to the 1st tree stumps on LHS, other than that a fine chilly image!!
