Morning Lillian, another productive day at Bushy. The lens gives a very useful restricted dof. Nicely captured play between them, the rehearsals seem to be going well.

"How do we do this? Is it right over left or left over right?"
Marvellous to see these youngsters preparing for the serious business ahead. Growing up means play becomes business
Malc
Well captured Lillian. The colour & tones are superb as is the positioning of the 2 stags. Lovely morning even if the activity was minimal.
Jenni
fine work again Lillian two excellent captures and i think you are right to leave in the f/g bracken it adds
Graham
Two fantastic images Lillian, superb detail and so beautifully captured
Hugh
The younger stag is pushing it's luck against the older more experienced fighter, but sometimes youthful strength can overcome tactics.
Dougie
Two great shots Lillian wonderful colours we were so lucky with the weather a brilliant day out enjoyed by all
Susan
Have to be honest Lillian if a stag was charging me with those antlers I would S**T myself also! Two great captures.
Regards
Trev.
Two cracking shots, Lillian, superb photography...is there anything you don't do well?!
Trev
A good bit of gentle sparring you've captured in this shot Lillian.......just like what goes on between the Big O and Tomcat on here most days! lol
two brilliant shots,
v2 for the knot of antlers, looks almost staged as you say!
