Great set there especially #1. The eye contact in #1 & #3 make them stand out from the normal “Deer somewhere on the horizon” shots.
Well done…../Mikka
Donal, it was my new (to me) Sigma 500/4.5 I got used on ebay recently :D Really sharp! Used on a 40D. Any lens would have got you close enough yesterday so if anyone has something like a 70-300 or even an 18-50mm and wants some deer shots it would be a good spot. 500mm was too long at times.
