Well, I wasn't expecting this to happen!,,,

I drove over to the Smoky Mountains again last weekend. I ended up at Cades Cove again. I saw a black bear in a tree sleeping, but I could hot get a good shot of it. I kept driving around the loop and I ran onto a few doe at the edge of a large field. I had my Canon 5dmkii with the Sigma 150-600 Sport lens with me. I was just sitting in my car shooting through the open window. It was really over cast and I was not expecting to get any good photos. My settings were: Shutter Speed at 1/400 sec,, F-stop at 6.3, and the ISO was on auto at -4000. I just sat there shooting and then, I was not expecting this to happen. Here is a series of shots I got.

Love #7. I love watching deer jump for some reason.

Nice! You had a lucky day! Love the jumping shot in particular. They were definitely cooperating with you!
