Stag in the woods

[Seamus]

Hi folks,

I wandered over to the Phoenix Park today and snapped this with the 400 5.6. It is a full frame pic:

He is too big and the antlers looked too sharp for me to risk pulling the tags off
:rofl

Very nice Shay. :thumb
Hey Steve, I was walking through the woods and he was lying down in the undergrowth. He stood up as I trampled noisly along (no Daniel Boone blood in my veins :wink ). I think we both got a fright, thankfully he stood still long enough for me to take a couple of frames.

Good capture Shay. I bet that with the clone tool and healing brush you could make it look the stag never met an ear tag, :D

He was a big one. I'm glad he decided to walk away, I don't think my monopod would have put a dent in him :wink .

Thanks for the suggestion Harry but it's too much hard work :scratch . I know how to do a few basic things in elements, anything else confuses me:scratch :wink
