I wanted to catch the fading light over this old foundation that is off the path to the old cemetary that I mentioned in my other thread. It's amazing how this is in the middle of an industrial park but yet I felt like I was out in the middle of nowhere. When I pulled up to park my car near the gate, I spied two deers eating grass. I immediately slowed down and grabbed my camera. I put my 75-300mm lens on and got out of the car, leaving the car running and the door opened. I did not want them to take off on me. I slowly walked towards them, maximizing my zoom and hoping I would get at least one good shot. I wasn't even sure if I actually had the buck in the frame because he stood so still. He must have heard my shutter because he froze and just watched me. And then decided he was going to walk off. Then I noticed that there were two does, not just one and they were lingering behind. They both were curious and were actually walking towards me! I was amazed and snapped away. When you look closely at the pictures of the buck you can see that he is maybe a 4 or 6 point buck, maybe even 8.
