More cooperative wildlife – yay!

“If your pictures aren’t good enough, you’re not close enough.” – Robert Capa

Clearly, not a problem last weekend. Of course, I don’t expect my luck to hold out on that front! ;) Finally got a shot of a mule deer with antlers, and he let me get very close before leisurely getting up and trotting away slowly. They are remarkably habituated to people @ Lopez. Most of these were shot on a tripod, which enabled me to get very sharp, accurate results that were otherwise not possible as I began to lose light. This short blog post on TWiP has some very useful tips on tripod use.

I may add more landscape style shots to the set on Flickr later.
