Red Stag sillouette

Had some great atmospheric conditions when I shot the rut at Bushy Park last year.

Can't see the stag and doesn't look like Bushy Park

Image changed since posting

to much atmospheric conditions and not enough stag

Very nice. However, I'm not 100% sold on the processing, was it really that brown there? I'd have cropped a bit of the left side out - the foliage in line with the head is a bit distracting.

Definitely Bushy Park and this particular shot with just the Stags head poking through the mist above the Bracken in the early morning glow was what I was hoping to get.
Funny how we all have a different eye to what makes an image. To me this is one of my favourites from the session

Hi Mike,

I'm liking the atmospheric shot. I agree with Joe about the foliage on the left but other than that it's a stunner. Thanks for sharing

I like this Mike, bushy is 5min from us and I recognise the conditions. Like the silhouette, might be tempted to crop or all out the foliage as others suggest. Would look nice printed!

I love the simplicity of the shot, the muted colours and the atmosphere. I agree with the others and I'd crop the left foliage too.
