Re-work of an earlier post.
It got me 2nd in tonight's camera club competition (Colour Prints) and I am quite chuffed because I also got a 2nd for The Big Freeze (mono PDI), Highly Commended for National Gallery of Canada (mono prints) and Commended for Scarce Swallowtail (colour PDI).
Still to get that elusive 1st though 
.
Thanks for looking
Jason

Lots to admire in this Jason, not least the excellent use of dof and a great background. Congratulations on your achievements.

What makes this image for me Jason, is the back-lit leaves creating a marvellous bokeh in the background round the top of his antlers. Wouldn't be the same without that.
As for your other images, the big freeze is one hell of a sharp b&w image, so no surprise it did so well.
Congratulations.

Love the bokeh a long lens creates - super here.
Excellent crop - different from the usual - good detail especially in the eyes. Also like the bit of grass sticking out of its mouth
