Good shot. Would have been cooler if you could have caught both animals clearly.Bernie #8908

Steven, I was just reading a bit about how it's important to get some catch-light in the eyes when shooting wildlife --- that this can be the one thing that will get you published or not. You've done an excellent job here with natural catch-light. I disagree with Bernard about the other deer. The focus here is the deer in the foreground. Getting both in sharp focus would've ruined the shot, I think. Very nice light. I really love this image. #20552Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
