Douglas,  Great photos as always.  What a talent.  Just have to ask though.  How close were you to this buck?  I know a lens can bring it up close, but also know the closer you are the better the shot.   Thanks for sharing.

Wow nice stud. What makes his antlers so dark? How old do you think he is?

I photographed him two years ago and he was basically mature, probably 4.5 then, so now 6.5.

I think I was about 45 yards.  I got within 20 of him that night but it was too dark for photos.  He stayed in that spot for about 4 days I reckon, then disappeared.   I hope he moved on and didn't end up in someones freezer.  The natives hunt that nasty hard.

Its good to see a nice buck just unwind and lay down instead of on full alert!!
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

More unbelievable pics.   I wish I knew how you get such good shots.   Again, thanks for sharing with us mere mortals.
