January 6th 2009

You just can’t help meeting deer along Glen Etive. The deer are not particularly shy but some care needs to be taken so a close up shot is achievable. I like this shot as I was able to keep out of sight below a feeding herd but still managed to get a shot of a large stag together with one of his females in the background. Scotland is a great place for wildlife photographers to go to, to capture those images we all like to see and if you go to many wild places in Scotland there is always plenty of wildlife to photograph and long may it continue.
