I was up at 6:00 and getting ready to head to the gym. When I looked out our front window, this was one of five deer on our front lawn. I made this image with my iPhone. The deer would have been gone by the time I got out my dSLR and the right lens. Remember, the best camera is the one you have available to take the shot. When I went out the back door a few minutes later, the deer had moved to the back of the house and we cautiously observed each other as I walked to my car.
Yes, the best lens is the photographer’s eye … and the best tool the hand which presses the button the moment magic happens … :o)
So true. Then we just have to hope there is magic. Cheers
There is magic in the deers face :o)
Such lovely visitors and on your lawn!! 😃
Thank you. I think they wanted to nibble on the grass. We have a late spring and there aren’t any leaves on the trees yet. Cheers
I hope they come back more often and you can get good photos of them with your good lens. But your camera phone did well to capture this shot.👍😊
Thank you Garfield. Cheers
The fawn (?) looks as startled as you must have been.
Pretty much. We seldom get deer in the yard despite living in the country. They were actually pretty bold when I went outside. Cheers
Great shot! 😊 Deers are an amazing animals.
Thank you. They are beautiful. Cheers
How lovely! And perfect timing since we were just talking about wildlife. 😉 And you’re so right about the best camera being the one you have with you! Have a wonderful Sunday, Chris! Cheers! 😊
Thanks Sarah. Yes, it was a happy coincidence. Have a great Sunday also. Cheers
claps hands in joy… great catch… bravo
Thank you so much. It pays to be up early in the morning. Cheers! Have a great week. =)
So pretty.
Thank you, Sohair. Cheers. Have a great week.
Same to you Chris..thanks
Great shot! You live in a marvellous place: woodpeakers, squirrels and deers free around 😃
Cheers!

It is interesting living here. It’s been a late spring so the animals are all looking for food until the foliage comes out.
So cute and beautiful ! 🙂
Thank you so much. It was a nice surprise. Cheers
Oh, you lucky, lucky guy!! I miss the wild animals in the yard…*sigh*
Thank you. I am fortunate to have animals living so close by so as to see them every now and again. Cheers!
