Nikon D200 Soup | White-tailed Deer This White-tailed Deer was walking through the woods of northern Michigan on an early spring day in late afternoon. As it walked, it would stop to look around. It spotted me even though I was using my vehicle as a bind. Then, it stood for a very long time looking at me while continually scouting the area. With all the light brown background, it was hard to know if any of my clicks were good. The trees and branches would move due to the wind. Either a branch was in the way or the deer blinked or suddenly moved. Finally, it stopped, looked, and Click! The deer then turned a walked away. After looking at the images in post processing, I realized only the last couple of clicks were keepers.
The Back Story This image was captured with a simple click while using my vehicle as a blind. Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
