A gorgeous portrait despite the low lit condition.
We also have a contest for tue Color Brown...
What a sensitive pair of ears!
They're like portable radars!
Monochromatic colors. Excellent details & features. Impressive setting & textures. Thanks for sharing...

Comment from Jo Calderbank
a beautiful capture of this lovely deer with pin sharp focus and clarity, the doe eyes are amazing with lovely light captured in them, the deer stands out very well defined from the soft blurred back ground with very fine detail, natural colours, I like the portrait framing which centres on the deer's face and ears with such an alert look, a very well taken photograph worth the wait to capture,
very well done. a pleasure to view.

A beautiful portrait of this beautiful Doe her wide eyes watching & her pricked ears listening out for any signs of danger every muscle tensed & ready to go into action should she sense danger. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Yes, wildlife Photography requires much patience. There are times I wait hours on end for a Egret to do it's mating dance or a Heron to capture a fish.
You did a fine job getting your up close and personal shot of this sweet deer looking your way. Focus is good and DOF is fab. I would only suggest with wildlife you raise your shutter speed much higher to get a sharper image.
1/2500sec with an F/stop of F/4.5 or no higher than what you have here f/5.6.
The higher shutter also improves handheld Photography.
I never shoot lower than 1/2500sec on Wildlife.
I am usually much higher.
Nicely Done Linda ;)

Thank you so much for your advise. I have one question though. I tried once to use a tripod but does it take a lot of practice setting up and moving the camera around to get the shot? I found it quite awkward.
I really appreciate your feedback as it is so helpful.

I own a very expensive tripod that sits in the closet. I used it one for night shooting.
I learned to not have to use one. When we go to certain wetlands we are on level ground with all wildlife. Gators, wild boar, snakes..
Need to be able to run, move quickly.
If you are steady handed... No need for tripod unless you are using a lens larger than 400.
High shutter/ low F/stop and learning to set white balance manually are the key to be able to shoot under any weather conditions.
My night shots from lantern festival.. handheld using 70 to 300 lens.no flash. I was told you must use tripod for night. I used Kelvin Scale.. and shot most at 1/150 to 1/200 shutter.
When you get lower than 100 shutter speed tripod is best.
But... In 15 yrs I have yet to use a tripod.
Our hikes are miles long.. Camera and bag are all I carry.

You did a fantastic job here. I have always had a difficult time capturing deer because they won't stay still. You however captured this deer with perfect clarity. The close up is nice as well and so is the lighting. Well done and thanks for sharing :)
