It took a lot of time and patience to get this shot. I went back to this particular field every week for about 6 weeks so they would begin to feel more comfortable around me, which enabled me to get in closer.

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in a field in New Brunswick, Canada after a fresh snow fall.

Time

The photo was taken around mid afternoon after patiently waiting for several hours for the perfect moment to capture a mother and her fawn during its first winter.

Lighting

The freshly fallen snow added a brightness to the photograph that made the deer stand out all the more.

Equipment

The camera I used was a Nikon Coolpix L820. No other equipment was used.

Inspiration

There is something about photographing wildlife in their natural habitat that I find so inspiring, especially when capturing a moment like this between a mother and her fawn.

Editing

I adjusted the contrast slightly to make the deer more defined and adjusted the lighting ever so slightly since it was cloudy overhead.

In my camera bag

A typical photography adventure involves only my camera and I.

Feedback

When photographing wildlife, it is important to be patient. The right shot will come along eventually.
