Yes Deer.....

Taken this weekend at a nature park about 25 minutes from my house. It was amazing how close we could get to them. They were wild but you could tell they have never been hunted.

1) This one started walking toward us. Didn't get too close but close enough to help get a really good shot.

2) This one was at 176mm and no crop.

4) This is one of my favorites. I kept trying to get closer but was shooting as I was slowly walking.

Thanks binga. I can understand that. I am still in shock that I was able to get that close, talk about fill the frame.

I really like the lighting on the first photo, but the second one really comes to life.
And the three deer together, it is pretty funny
Wish I could get photos of deer like you did here! Great Job!

Nice series Ron; come up to my neighbourhood. They are so prolific and so 'not scared' that you can easily get within 2-3' of them.

Thanks John. I would love to come to your neighborhood, but only during the summer. (no offense, I don't like the cold.) I would have to bring extra cards and a couple of 2TB external drives to fill up with photos, probably in a weeks time. lol
