Quite the serendipitous moment this past Saturday. I was driving along, looking for a spot to get trees silhouetted against the brilliant sunrise. Suddenly, I notice this white-tailed deer buck standing on a rise, just in the perfect position.

I slammed on the brakes, hopped out, and started snapping pics, getting a wide-variety of captures at various focal lengths as the buck stood motionless. I took a lot of pictures that day but I have to say, this is the one I am most proud of – I just really, really like it.
