    Ok so I too will jump in on all this deer theme as well. Shot 2 years ago while on our Colorado NRF gathering.

    Went to the Canyon Light's Display here in Vancouver this past weekend. Even the D800 and 24-70mm F2.8 struggled to focus in the low light, but I like this shot anyway.

    If I take a good photo it's not my camera's fault.

    Oh Deer !
    This was one of the first few clicks of my D800 - taken one morning on the way to work with the Nikon 24-70 and heavily cropped.

    Another shot from the Morton Arboretum light show. Hard to avoid at least some blown out highlight areas; exposures change rapidly from moment to moment. Maybe if I had a D4 ....

    Illumination 05p_
    D7100, 16-85 @ 16mm, 1.3 sec at f/7.1, ISO 400, tripod

    edit: highly envious of all the deer shots; nice work everyone!

    @Scuderia1 I shot this hand held this morning, I pulled left arm in tight while i held the tripod foot in my left hand and elbow in my ribcage. It's not bad to handle with D610. Shot at 600mm @f6.3 ISO 200 overcast morning.DSC_4582

    Continuing my "theme" from my shoot on 12/16.
    DSC_3637_P

    @Nikonsince1974 - How do you know it's a buck? I just moved to Colorado in May.. So I'm still learning the wildlife.. I said "baby" because it was with what I assumed to be mother & father, and the size was noticeably different. I'll post a picture of "daddy" tomorrow :)

    @nitro4me Did you really shoot that squirrel at 1/15s? Thanks for the shot! If that's really shot at 1/15s handheld at 600mm.. You got some great technique! Pretty sharp as well. Did you do any post-edits?

    @Scuderia1, I did shoot him at 1/15s,I cropped it and added a little definition and contrast. My technique is the same as my army training to fire a M16 rifle. The D610 &Tamorn 150-600 seems heavy compared to a sixteen with a loaded 30 round mag did 27years ago. ;)
  • Just one more Christmas Tree photo. Love the colors.

    One more ... The pose here was a little awkward at first but seems to have gotten more interesting over time.

    Photo bombed my picture of the Dodge Viper from the t.v. Show Empire
    I'm not sure if the car is part of the scene or one of the team owns it.

    Man, with as many mulies and white tails as we have here, we could all meet our deer season limit!
