Bambi looking for Mum

It’s very hot here today and this afternoon I took the bike to do some shoppping. We live on a very pleasant housing estate. Between all the rows of houses there are wide strips of pine forest with very nice cycle paths everywhere. As I mentioned before a fine bit of forest that was very close to us is now rapidly being developed and 50 new modern houses are being built.

As I came back from the shops I found a Roedeer with her kid lying next to the cycle path just by the children’s playground next to where we live. I stopped quickly, got off my bike and got my camera out. The mother got up and ran slowly away but I managed to get one shot of them lying in the grass together (see WORKSHOP) and this one of the little one being left behind when mother ran off! It is actually standing on a new cycle path that’s under construction.

The Roedeer seem to adjust to us humans easily and we often see them in the forest but I’ve never been so close to them before.

These are technically not very good captures as the light was facing me and they moved away but I did enjoy the experience and want to share it with you! Both images have been cropped and sharpened.

Splendida cattura, bellissima composizione con lo scenario chiuso dai tronchi degli alberi, il contrasto di luce che crea un'atmosfera di grande fascino e la silhouette di bambi illuminata di luce "fiabesca", fantastici i colori. Grazie e complimenti. Ciao Maurizio

Hi Ulla,

This is a real stunner, the backlighting is simply wonderful, beautiful colours, really like the framing with tall pine trees, really lovely work, all the best,

Cheers Rick :)

It is the situation that lends a special charm to this cute little Bambi, Ulla.
Since the mother has scooted away, the little one is anxiously looking for her as can be made out from its body language from the rear.
Despite the sun facing you, the image has its very special beauty.
Thanks and take care.

Hello Ulla!

Very good title :-) I like composition with two trees and animal. Light is slightly too harsh, but overall very good picture.

Hola Ulla,
Preciosa captura de bella composición, con gran definición, bonito color y muy agradable contraluz que hace destacar el Bambi, TFS. Saludos

Hi Ulla!

There are situations where imperfections or errors add to the value of a picture. The kind of picture you present us today is very difficult to realize, because if the bright tones are well exposed, the dark ones will be underexposed and vice versa. Usually, in both case the loss of details is the result.

In this particular case the overexposure of the bright tones - some parts are "burnt" - suit the subject very well. The white patches of the bambi's skin is reproduced and highlighted in the spots of the flowers, the grass and the sky. I like this effect here, but I wouldn't accept it in a landscape (burnt clouds are awful...).

I just want to say it's a wonderful picture...

Kind regards

Markus

Hi Ulla,i think that the light give at this pic a magic atmosphere,i read that tou think different about that,but for me this is a great artwork....you're lucky to live there and see this spectacles!!Have a nice day,Luciano

It sounds so idyllic where you live Ulla...i hope it isn't developed too much, for your sake and the wildlife!
You shot reminds me a little of one i posted recently, also of a female deer in sunlight amongst trees. Yours however, has a much more dazzling light and wonderful grasses in the background. An excellent composition too, well done!

Hi Ulla, fantastic light on lovely bambi, splendid composition well framed by great trees, very well done, ciao Silvio

The overexposed lighting gives an surreal effect to your beautiful image, Ulla. The little Bambi is fantastic in its pose. I just love the beauty and grace of those animals. I looked at the beautiful legs and thighs, the ears all opened to the sounds... the coat is precious with its lighter dots on the side of the bambi. Thank you, fantastic sight and you shared it so well,

Francine
