More Whitetail

[PrimeTime]

Still on the whitetail theme.............



I don't know what she is eating, but it must have been really good. If you look close, you can also see she has young (they never showed though)

These are nice, and you definitely get the sense that the deer is comfortable with your presence, which is essential in nature photography. But I don't think the focus is as good as it could be. I can't see your EXIF data so I don't know what your settings were, but it looks like your aperture may have been too open (which could have been for the lighting, I don't know). But your DoF is so narrow that it doesn't look like the deer's face is quite in focus, and that's keeping these from being really spectacular shots.

What a stunning selection of pictures.

JerinTheBox makes a fascinating observation about the deer obviously being comfortable in your presence and I think I know the answer.

You're really a whitetail deer yourself and have been taught to take photographs, although I don't claim to be absolutely certain of my facts.

These are outstanding PrimeTime, I joy to look at and I love your work

Thank's for your honest opinion jerln. It really helps me become a better photographer.

These shots were shot handheld at 1/30 and 1/80s (which i loose quite a few do to camera shake or movement of the subject)

The aperature was at f/4 because of lighting and the iso was at 800 , which added some noise to the photos.

If they would only come out when i could use f/5.6 iso 100 and shutter speed of 400.
