[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was taken a few weeks ago. You are not supposed to get too close to the deer at the moment due to the threat of Foot and Mouth disease. They haven't got Foot and Mouth disease but it is good to protect them and any nearby livestock.

The following guidelines were issued:
Keep to paths and tracks
Do not approach the deer
Keep dogs on a lead
Take any waste, including food, home with you.

Hi Karan,
You've got a very clear image of these deers.
I like so much the warm light on them, and the beautiful details got on its fur.
The thorns on the big one are really very impressive.
Congratulations and thanks for share it.

Hi Karen,
great light and contrast with super clarity, he's got himself a large harem by the looks of it! The way he's positioned here in this shot gives a real sense of him fiercely guarding them all. i'm going to try to get a few myself at the weekend...hopefully with some success this time!

Hello Karan,
a superb shot of this hefty-looking Deer.
+++ Excellent composition draws the eye to the large and formidable antlers. Great detail in the fur which is enhanced by the excellent sharpness.
--- Nothing :)
I hope this herd doesn't get foot and mouth disease! It is so horrible :(

Well done,
Joe

This dude has a set of most impressive antlers on its head, Karan.
Seems to be reigning supreme over its herd.
Well captured image with good use of natural light.
Thanksand regards.

Hi Karan,
So did you follow the rules or bend them a little? Its a wonderful family portrait and a good sign that rutting season is about to start. Especially when you look at the stag. Its sleak look is almost gone. I love the flies hovering around the family a lot and I really like how the light has illuminated the stags coat.
TFS,
Niek

Hello Karan,
That is a great family portrait!
The big guy looks really protective...
This is a fine capture with good details, impressive colours in the fine light and a well composed presentation!
Greetings,
Pablo -

What a beautiful family, Karan They are wonderfully captured here - I like the way they are, or appear to be, clustered together. Good job on your angle and light -- they are both very nice.
Mike
