It's not often that the light and everything work when I try to get a shot like this!
Credit Where It Is Due
Credit Where It is Due
I like to make photographs, and I enjoy being praised for what I have done. But God teaches a different attitude, one of thankfulness and humility. He pointed that out to me recently. I DO NOT MAKE THESE PHOTOGRAPHS ALONE. I didn't create the light, or the technology which makes photography possible. I didn't buy my camera, it was a gift from my husband. I didn't give myself the ability to see through the camera in order to make an image which others find pleasing. It is right to use what I have been given to the best of my ability, but it is wrong to take credit for what I have not done. God made the light, the elements which are used to manufacture the camera, and the world from which these images come. He has given me gifts: people to teach me, eyes to see with, and a brain to process information. I am thankful for these gifts. He deserves all the praise, not I.

That is a really nice shot. We have plenty of deer around here, but I never get this close.
Great capture! The light is wonderful, and the fawn is being such a good subject.
And he looks like he's posing or at least looking back before he heads into the woods. :)
They are indeed the sweetest little animals. And yes, they got quite a few of our apples as well. I think they like them better than the acorns.
Nice shot!
Thanks for you comments! When at Disney I always felt like a kid, and those characters were even "real" to me when we would photograph and pose with them.
Your deer are lovely! Many deer today!

I captured a photo of a young deer while on vacation. It is such a treat to capture unsuspecting wildlife. Very nice shot!
She is so perfect! I bet you are happy you met that beauty!
These are very wary, so you have been grabbed your chance and used it well.
Yes, they do love apples don't they!
What a sweetheart, and a great shot.
Very soft image.
