I went out the other day to capture some herons before they fly south.On the way to my spot I noticed these two bucks having a snack in a farmers field.I didn't find the herons but these two made the trip worth while.

Just out having a snack,I managed to fire off a few photo's of these two

He had enough of me taking his pic and heads for the safety of the trees.

    The first one has a wonderful 3-dimensional quality to it. Very nice.

    I really like the first one. It really shows the wide open spaces.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    ice - one possible suggestion...
    i know you said it was cropped, but I would lose the sky and distant trees in the first shot - something like this if you have the room to crop a tad further - and I think it would look great....hope you don't mind my borrowing the image to respond....

    Regards...Keith (don't confuse me with a professional!)
