Very handsome looking fellow and another excellent pose with great eye contact and detail. Your deer photos are always a treat to view and reflect the fondness you have for them. Great shot, Debra.

Great shot Debra. Your captures always have a special signature. You are presenting the guy in a very majestic pose. position of the back legs suggest he was walking and stop just to stare at you. Appreciate the elongated body and the front body a little higher than the back,. Not seemed to be a sunny day but you did a good job and the shot is clear. bravo!

Thanks again Yves. I will be sorry not to see your images any more. Yes the buck was moving very cautiously along. I am glad that he was nervous around cars and people.

Description
I am sharing both pictures as I like # 1 for the small area of lighting that the buck had almost moved into. He didn't give me much of a chance to get the picture before he darted off into the bush and eventually across the road after a couple of does. In shot number 2 he was kind enough to give me this great pose and a stare before taking off.
