A Mule Deer Buck image from Sunday morning.

The morning started off very wet with heavy fog. In the end it turned out to be a great day for something a little different. The wet vegetation provided nice saturated colors and the fog helped with the backgrounds.

All comments/suggestions are appreciated.

Vince,

I like the effect of the fog. It's not your usual Colorado conditions. The buck is also striking and unusual pose and with the remants of the velvet on the antlers it makes for a very interesting image. I like it!

Very nice. :)

The gradation of colors in the BG looks great. An odd, but pleasing pose that is well framed. Looks like it must have been a perfect morning.

Looks like he's posed to stretch back for that itch he can't quite reach! Very nice shot Vincent and love the soft colours of the BG - looks like the damp and misty start turned out in your favour! 8) :D

I love the BG colors. His pose is a little awkward IMO but the eye contact is good.

Man, that's a huge rack for a mule deer! At least for any mule deer I've ever seen around here.

The background couldn't be any better. Great job!
