Deer and fawn standing in a field of long grass – unusual to see a field of long grass, presumably the farmer decided not to mow the hay, or perhaps an attempt to support the local wild life.
Taken towards the end of the usable light of the day, I had a real problem with the autofocus grabbing random pieces of grass instead of the intended subject. Two minutes later the pair turned their backs and disappeared completely into the confusion of the seed stems.

I like the tall grass but it sure is a pain when dealing with autofocus. In this photo you won!
Thanks. My camera is relatively old by today’s standards, but it helps reinforce a major requirement on my next. 😉
I know this was a challenging shot, but you really cracked it. I have so many deer shots that I am not happy with. This one is great.
Thank you.
There is a grass stem across the face of the youngster, I considered cloning it out, but accepted that it was far beyond my capability (or patience!).
It’s a wonderful photograph.
🙂 Thank you!
excellent capture
Thank you!
