I like how well the see through the grasses view suits the moment. You get a real sense of the bond they share here and they stand out so nicely against the trees. Your focus is spot on in this beautiful capture Debra!

Agree with Clifford all the way Debra. I love those photo that are timeslice of a moment in the day to day life of a living individual. Your simple description gives me all what I need to understand the moment and feel the emotional. Thanks for sharing. Btw may be you had the opportunity to raise the camera to show more of the deers. Just to tel you I love the shot just the way it is.
