The weatherman couldn't have got it more wrong today. He forecast rain all morning brighter in the afternoon after 12pm.
Ended up being a bright morning and terrential rain started at 12pm
Glad I made the effort to go early.

Quality.
The deer have been captured very well.
The first one stands out. I'd maybe have cropped out a bit of the water but I do like the symmetry you've got with the composition.
Whereabouts in Cheshire is this? I could look it up but I figure asking is more social.

Good set of shots. #1 is really good I like the angle and the B&W but can't help feel that there's too much empty foreground.
#3 I like a lot.
#5 
#6 Great old building. I like the jaunty angle. What is the building do you know?

I like them a lot.. I'd be tempted to go for a tighter crop on #3 though, focusing on the Stag looking straight ahead. (just my two penneth)
