Nature A youth's curiosity

A youth's curiosity · 09:36 AM

This young buck walking out of the woods caught me by suprise just as I was packing things up. I thought I was never going to make this shot, as I had to take my K-1 out of the bag, re-mount the camera on the lens, turn it on the tripod... The youth was as curious of me as I was of him, it turned out, he even took a few steps toward me to see me better

I ended up shooting about 50 frames of him, framing to my heart's content - this is the best one of the series.

Awesome, I don't think you could have gotten the composition any better if you were painting the scene.

Thanks!

A big factor in wildlife photography is luck, and in this case the roe deer male has appeared in a picturesque place, and quite close to me (40-50 meters). Combine that with a bit of time to get the composition right, and it all comes together

The force is indeed strong with you, a great image.
