July 9th, 2009

First up, here's the 3-month anniversary video for the Photo-a-Day challenge!




Critters . . . they make for great photo subjects, especially when they pose for you! Came home this morning to find this little fella in the front yard. I love that our yard is a habitat for all sort of critters. We've seen rabbits, groundhogs and deer almost daily . . . bear, occasionally . . . and our back deck has been a perch for eagles or hawks . . . not sure which they are, but they are stunning.

Shot with the Nikon 70-200mm on a slow approach. I began shooting the deer from almost a 50 yards away . . . then took little baby steps closer - all the while shooting. Got as close as 30 feet before the deer had had enough and moved on. Captured at 400th of a second at f2.8. ISO is 100.
