The fastest animal in North America poses for a portrait. Also the only animal that has branching horns and that "shed" (sort of). This one had a particularly nice set of horns with large cutters.

Wow, what a wonderful portrait of a very handsome animal. Love the composition, the light in the eyes, and the simple background in the same color as the animal showing you how it blends in. Very well done.

His prongs have to be close to four inches long - absolutely incredible!
