Continuing with my run of fog-shrouded images from last summer, here is a mule deer doe (above) and her juvenile (below) enjoying the summer wildflowers in Point Reyes National Seashore. I began my day in the park with a morning drive out to Chimney Rock and encountered this pair along Sir Francis Drake Boulevard. The backside of the large dunes of the outer peninsula are in the background, and if it wasn't for the fog, the Pacific would be visible beyond them.

I wonder what he was watching, great photos! phyllis
ReplyDeleteThanks, Phyllis. Something definitely caught their attention, but I wasn't able to see what it was.
DeleteNicely done! I like the alert ears and the defined DOF!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Brian! Their ears are rather expressive. I'm always surprised at how much of a different the ear positioning can make to the feeling of a photograph. There are plenty of times when I shoot a series of the same subject that one set of ear positions is clearly more pleasing than another.
DeleteBeautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Marie!
