Location
I took this photo in the woods of Montana. The deer was walking sassily along the path, with nothing to fear.Time
I took this around 11:00 in the morning, before the sun was at its peak.Lighting
The harsh morning light is usually too much for my camera, but the overhanging tree branches provided a welcome shade.Equipment
I used a small, zoomed camera without flash.Inspiration
I was looking for wildlife, when I saw the deer in the path. I quickly raised my camera and fired off a few photos. I thought she looked so soft and pretty, with her white tail and brown eyes. She was interested in me as well.Editing
I did absolutely no processing.In my camera bag
I normally have my camera and a spare battery. It's all I need for photos like this.Feedback
Walk quietly, and keep your camera on. Be ready to take a photo at a moments notice, as wildlife is, well, wild.
