Red deer at Glenshee and shy Roe deer

Close at hand

At a distance

A chance but fleeting moment with a young lady

very nice is good to see them in the hills and not in parks

 

[InaGlo]

1st one for me ... Im not sure about the crop though.
I agree with Ian, tis lovely to see them ... I dont think Ive ever seen wild deer!

 

[TomB]

Agree with InaGlo - the first could be great with some more room on the right of the frame.

Agreed, from the format of the shot it looks like a crop also ? so maybe open it up a little on the right of the frame unless theres something hideous there

A slight crop was taken in from right side.

This one I have just added was just cropped at bottom.

Very nice I prefer the second "crop version"

I have to agree with comments, and as a amateur like me, one can learn by thoughts of others.

 

[IanC_UK]

that edit of the shot is much better the other new shot is very nice too

 

[TomB]

Yup much better with more space.

 

[InaGlo]

Yup! I agree with Ian & Tom ... 2nd crop is much better!

 

[Forbiddenbiker]

Nice shots, I agree with the others about the crop, the one below could use something similar too I feel.

Damn it lads your making me work. Just cropped the top portion and sharpened

 

[Janice]

Well, I like 'em all, cropped or not cropped!

 

[dunedin]

Thanks Janice, was wondering where Sawman has sloped off to.

 

[sawman]

Sawman has just "sloped" back from a wet & soggy Moidart. Reds are pictorially good but the wee Roe is the one that gets the blood pumping. As soon as I got back before even going to the house I had a quick look on the hill. 2 Roe feeding on set aside & A young buck just where I left him last week.

 

[dunedin]

Welcome back, await the results of the visit if you were out and managed to get any shots, weather permitting.
Will put another roe on I got last night but nothing special was caught unawares and an awkward position.

Monday high winds
Tuesday / Wendesday Rehearsing for Thursday. Wind & torrents of rain. Friday, Hail
Saturday fresh snow on hills
Did get a few shots but not of Roe & did not bother with the Reds

 

[dunedin]

Just a last word, off to Austria on Monday so expect to see some from you by the time I get back.

 

[Spud]

Nice shots,looks quite remote outhere.

[moomike]

Agree with the thoughts on the crop above, 2nd version for me
Hope you have a great time in Austria mate

 

[dunedin]

Thanks for comments, as to being remote, not to bad unless you get up higher, these were taking from main road through Glenshee, and first ones close up were just out of Braemar.
On to holidays, afraid not my scene, home loving person and open spaces of Scotland, but arm was right up my back so gave in. The weather looks pretty grim over their.

The weather looks pretty grim over their.

......so you will be able to get some nice, brooding dark sky shots!...

You might even get a cloud with a silver lining....... have a good time and watch out for the calorie laden torte!

but the wee Roe is the one that gets the blood pumping. .

Definitely, we've got a couple keep making an appearance in one of our fields, way to nervous to get anything like close enough for a shot though
