A calm, cool morning on the Colorado plains and the sun was just starting to pop over the horizon. The warming light had illuminated the clouds in orange but had yet to reach the surface. This handsome white-tailed deer buck was doing as they do this time of year, following a doe looking for love. I don’t know if he ever caught her but I am grateful he paused long enough to allow me to get this capture.
