The Rutt

Taken just before sunrise a few days ago at Bushy Park, London.
Thanks to Phil Morgan and Alan (Outlander) for the company, it was a great day.

It was very cold and there was a heavy frost, you can see a cloud of the stags' breath around them.

Luckily we set our cameras up by the car for them to acclimatise to the cold and we walked up behind some trees and this was just kicking off right in front of us and they were the first photos we took, right place right time for a change

Due to the light being very low this was taken at ISO 4000 tripod mounted.

I cropped a bit off the height but hardly anything off the width.
