"Hello my Deer"
Posted by "Marie" :-) (perth, Australia) on 23 April 2009 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.
Oh give me a home where the buffalo roam, Where the deer and the antelope play, Where seldom is heard a discouraging word And the skies are not cloudy all day.

About Marie Lee
I have lived in Perth Western Australia for the past 15 years, prior to that I lived in Birmingham UK.
I am a people person who loves being slightly nosey..... well I am just interested. I love taking photos, but have so much to learn, I only just found out what DOF was...... I am also teaching myself (very slowly) photoshop. So I have lots on my plate at the moment...... But I am loving it.
I have been on here for a few months now and cannot get away with saying I am new to AM3 anylonger. I have met some really interesting and funny people, and am loving it.
Please feel free to comment on my photos, and please, please, please leave any help, tips or suggestions, they will be greatfully recieved. I am soaking up all the information you give, and welcome your input.
The more help I can get the better.
Hope to enjoy your photos and hope you like some of mine. Have a great day............. Marie :)

You are just brilliant with animals, Marie. The way you frame them and the way you give the tones are just fabulous. You are a real wildlife photographer, if I may say so.

Roman from Thunder Bay, Canada
Now, that is a perfect head shot, very well done Marie !!! It is tac sharp and you got great colors here. On a different note, it's amazing how those animals adobt to their surroundings, our deer are perfecty gray brown and it is very hard to spot them, espacially at this time of year and this one has a more vivid colors, probably for the same reason...
cheers

Barbara from Florida, United States
What an incredible surprise. I am so honored that you mentioned my Earth Day image. Marie, thank you very much. I just couldn't get around to everyone and just now trying to catch up.
Your image is stunning. This fawn still looks fairly young with the spots. A remarkable capture and I love the depth of color. This image touches home for me, where my father grew up there were many deer, I always enjoyed their beauty.
Thank you again, Marie. Such a kind thing for you to do.
25 Apr 2009 3:06am
@Barbara: It was an easy thing to do, your photo was beautiful. Thank you for the kind words. I hope you have a great weekend.
Mr.Shooter from shiraz, Iran
The colors are perfect.
the depth of field is good.The colors background is suitable for this deer.
Did you hunt anyother gesture of this animal.Maybe another view of deer make it more unique
25 Apr 2009 3:37pm
@Mr.Shooter: There is another one in my portfolio of the whole deer. thank you for your kind comment.

Marie from Paris, France
I'm impressed by this capture !!
The look of this "biche" is so sweet and she seems not affraid by you !
In french, there is a song : "Biche, oh ma biche, lorsque tu soulignes tes jolis yeux au crayon noir"... (Sorry but I cannot traduce it... :-(
I'm sad because I cannot explain as I would like all my emotions concerning your photographies, all your blog... I try to learn more vocabulary and grammer ! I hope I will soon write you comments more beautiful !
Thank for the visit I've done here !
Kiss from Paris !
