Easter deer pics..lots

Got this thing about pics of deer since moving near to the New Forest. Taken with 350d/sigma bigma (handheld/leaning on posts!).

Any comments or thoughts welcome

Not sure if this works as a pic - focused on left deer:


















Got quite a few doe one too, but think thats enough for now

I prefer the last one in this series.
Mainly because there is so little colour saturation in the others this one stands out among them as a B&W conversion. And I also like the solitary deer captures with no other distractions.
But if you converted some of the other shots they might overtake this one for my vote.
It's a nice set. Interesting subject.

Yeah, took a few of these two, they kept going for ages - I like this one as it looks like the others were watching, but in truth most didn't even look up from grazing!

Thanks for the comments. Would have like a lone one of the white stag head on in BW, but unfortunately he wasn't up for posing
