Yes there is a deer in there. Look closely at the edge of the water, near the middle of the image. This is on the Rocky Mountain Arsenal, recently turned into a new State Wildlife Preserve. It is within 10 miles of downtown Denver and encompasses 37000 acres. It has just opened to the public and I intend to spend a lot of time there. There are several lakes with hugh fish and a herd of approximately 700 deer. An abundance of other wildlife is here too. They are going to bring in some buffalo and antalope too. I hope to be selected to shoot pictures from some blinds that are now located there this fall.

Beautiful shot Chuck! I see the deer plain as can be! Terrific colors in this! Sounds like a neat place they got going there! I think that's real cool they are turning an old arsenal into a game preserve! What a great use for it! Hope you get to use the blinds! Just make sure you share what you get with us!

Oh Boy ... My mind is racing thinking of all the great shots you may come up with if you're selected among the chosen few ... you lucky dog. Great "teaser" shot here ... Good Luck my friend.
