They were shot at 1/500th and f/7.1 at ISO 400, and no this lens is NOT stabilized. Further they were shot at between 420mm and 500mm. I think I was just lucky.

Great Shots; I shoot from my car window sometimes with my sigma 150-500mm, it's easier to balance on the window frame. You captured some fantastic detail.
He/She looks very thin, next time throw them a cookie!
Thanks for Sharing these

She caught you in that last shot! Finally figured out where that shutter click was coming from. Excellent shooting.....the rewards of keeping that camera close by!

Hand held! Show off.

Ordinarily I wouldn't like the straight-on head shot, but this one is remarkably engaging. Well done! Deer are just rats with antlers, but they can be darn photogenic rats...

I'm in Morris County. But I lived for a few years in Newark DE (years ago) when I worked in Deleware City and got my MBA at Night at U of D, then lived in Wilmington off of Marsh Road.

The third is the best. Very nice work. I can see the "?" expression in it

My wife grew up in South Jersey (Gloucester County) and I've seen plenty of these. Most times they're running across the road in front of the car.
