.....I spotted these three young deer at quite a distance and zoomed in to take the photograph using a signpost as a tripod! :) ...photograph taken at 200mm zoom so not too sharp, but it was good to observe these three youngsters just wandering in the woodland and totally unperturbed by the people walking along the pathways!

Great shot. They still have their spots. Most of those here have outgrown theirs. Photo looks pretty clear to me and the coloring is what a deer would like. It's amazing how they can blend into their surroundings. You did a fine job of capturing them. Nice post.

WELL, I thought you said you didn't get any decent deer shots. These are MUCH cuter than mine. And they showed you more of their assets ;-)

Baby's got Back!! Hehehe!!

Those unplanned shots and this turned out nice even with the whites being a wee harsh. A little post work in an editor could enhance the contrast within perhaps.

These are such a treat to find out in the wild. I know we have them around here but never see them. Great capture.

Another beautiful shot Patti. Although, as you say, it's not quite as sharp as usual, the contrasts are quite stunning and the composition is excellent. And look how excited it's got all these guys! Lol!

As a real photographer you have no choice when you see such a wonderful scene: you have simply to capture it. Think people have to accept that in such provisional conditions the image is not too sharp. Thanks for this beautiful shot Patti. Regards, Cornelius

Very natural and peaceful. For a zoom you still ended up with good clarity. Joe

I love how you composed this shot, making it so pretty and bucolic. There's a bit of glare in the middle, but it's still lovely. Great work patti. :)
