10 Point Mule Deer Buck

[Jared Gricoskie]

Stocked this herd of Mulies for 3 weeks until I found the biggest bucks of the bunch. Could have given more room for the virtual legs, and decided not to clone out the ear tags. The Park Service tags nearly every mulie in Rocky Mtn Nat Park.

Jared,

Magnificent looking buck. I like the framing except as you mentioned more room at the bottom was needed. The image has a strong red cast that I removed in the repost.

[Alfred Forns]

Wow !!! Love the image Great straight looking at you pose !!! Not sure if you could have moved to avoid the dark brown trees running through the head

Excellent color correction Robert !!!!!

Robert, thanks for the heads up. Just recalibrated my monitor and it was heavily biased red. The switch from Win 2000 to XP really played with my monitor.

Alfred, couldn't move due to the hillside that would have put the grass in front even higher. I did try moving but never got a better shot. So this was a compromise that worked out.

Nice healthy buck. I like the angle of the head turn and don't really mind the missing legs. I know what you mean about the ear tags but at least you didn't get one of the ones with the transmitter and antennae hanging out.

Robert nailed the repost. Excellent pose and capture.

Great buck and I like the setting. The color cast was a major problem initially but can be fixed as shown. Nice one,
